commit 33275769e252a3113ce603427286d01ff0de9858 Author: Aaron Wells <aar...@catalyst.net.nz> Date: Tue Sep 27 01:47:03 2016 +1300 Bug 1533377: Browserid end-of-life migration script This patch removes all authentication functionality from the browserid auth plugin. It adds a script, accessible through the plugin's configuration page, to migrate user accounts from browserid to internal auth. Also includes changes to allow users to be searched by authtype, and to prevent non-useable plugins from being enabled on the plugin config page.

We'll need to remove this plugin from the 16.10 release, and come up with a way to help existing sites migrate their users away from Persona. We should also consider how to help out the stable release sites in migrating users away from Persona. The Nov 2016 shutdown will be very close to the 16.10 release date, so asking sites to upgrade to 16.10 to use any migration tool will be fairly demanding, particularly since 15.04 will still be covered by its extended support lifetime. So for 15.04, 15.10, and 16.04 sites, an optional Persona migration plugin is probably the best option. That way the functionality will be available to sites that need it, without shipping new features in minor upgrades.
