TDF is not an OpenID provider. TBH though, there are so many OpenID providers
out there, that someone paranoid enough to care about this also will be able to
find a provider that is at least as trustworthy as TDF. As there are many
different ways to be paranoid, it is not good if TDF would single out one
specific provider as recommended. If someone is paranoid to the extreme, he
will be able to create his own OpenID provider -- but advising on that is
clearly out of scope for that audience.

Best,

Bjoern

For now, I'd ask Can you live with a Launchpad account?:
https://login.launchpad.net/+new_account

But you do raise an interesting question -- one that we have discussed
in the past. Many people would like some form of single sign-on for
TDF/LO services, and OpenID seems like it could roughly fit the bill,
*especially* if we could configure an OpenID server so that it would
only authenticate to our services.

That would then allow users to either
- Re-use an existing (non-LibreOffice) OpenID account, or
- Create a project-wide OpenID account with us

Does anyone have experience running an OpenID server in this fashion?

Best,

AskLibO is maintained by Ask's author on a service contract. Manually 
interfering with his work is therefore not such a good idea, I think.


What precisely are you looking for?

You mean anonymous access to edit questions, comments and answers?

Seems to me a door open to spaming.
