i'm having some trouble grokking openid... maybe somebody here can tell me if it's reasonable choice for me to run an identity provider and use it for auth to a few applications my users need, and allow other sites to trust that people are who i say they are...
- [06:45:54] <VxJasonxV>
OpenID is not about trust
- [06:46:02] <VxJasonxV>
It's about identity
- [06:46:33] <VxJasonxV>
identity providers don't auth applications. it auths users to applications
- [06:53:10] <bwlang>
hmm i think i can make it about both trust and identity if i control both the consumers (my apps) and the identity provider... or am i mistaken?
- [06:54:25] <bwlang>
right now i use ldap for this... but there is no provision for others trust me to authenticate a user who says i'll vouch for them - and thats a feature i want.

SimonW is Simon Willison, at http://simonwillison.net/
- [23:46:23] <SimonW>
what are the practical benefits of providing an XRDS file in addition to <link rel> tags on an OpenID identity page?
- [23:50:10] <_keturn>
it allows for the possibility of defining multiple servers. It allows you to be more explicit about what extensions the server supports. It allows you to maintain that information seperately from the HTML file.
- [23:50:35] <SimonW>
great answer :)
- [23:51:08] <SimonW>
so the separation from HTML seems like it's only useful for static pages, and the multiple servers thing isn't needed for my current application
- [23:51:18] <SimonW>
how well specified is the server extensions part of it?
- [23:51:20] * tommorris_ (n=tommorri@i-83-67-98-32.freedom2surf.net) has joined #openid
- [23:52:36] <_keturn>
Not very, given that there aren't yet many extensions defined.
- [23:53:10] <SimonW>
I think I'll leave it for the moment then
- [23:53:30] <SimonW>
it looks like it's an OpenID 2.0 only thing (no mention in the spec for 1.1) so it seems reasonable not to support it until OpenID 2.0 is fully baked
- [23:54:09] <_keturn>
yeah, that's reasonable.
- [23:57:29] <SimonW>
hmm.. I see Sam Ruby has a fallback OpenID server rigged up in his XRDS
- [23:57:40] <SimonW>
curl http://intertwingly.net/public/yadis.xrdf
- [23:57:46] <SimonW>
know if anything supports that?
- [23:57:54] <SimonW>
definitely a smart idea
- [23:59:36] <_keturn>
recent janrain libs will support that, if you call Consumer.begin() multiple times with the same session and identifier it cycles through the list of servers.
