  34. [00:49:21] <tourguide> Authentication error.
  35. [00:49:28] <tourguide> not sure whats up
  36. [00:49:41] <tourguide> Er.
  37. [00:50:18] <tourguide> pibb asked for a diff ID called myopenid
  38. [00:53:35] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> tourguide..
  39. [00:53:46] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> where did you get an openid.org openid from?
  40. [00:53:48] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> I didn't know they were a provider now..
  41. [00:54:00] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> oh, I see, different from .net
  42. [00:54:01] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> how confusing
  43. [00:54:02] <tourguide> I got my OpenID from OpenID.org
  44. [00:54:16] <tourguide> yah .net didnt offer
  45. [00:54:34] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> pibb will work with any openid provider that conforms to the standard
  46. [00:54:58] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> they just suggest myopenid as a provider as it's quite a nice provider, and it's also run by them
  47. [00:55:00] <tourguide> link to try pibb - https://pibb.com/signin?
  48. [00:55:28] <tourguide> i should just use myopenid then - its tha same standard?
  49. [00:55:44] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> I'm using pibb right now with the openid 'creativepony.com' which delegates to bluepony.myopenid.com
  50. [00:55:55] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> no, there is no 'standard provider'
  51. [00:55:56] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> you use whatever you like
  52. [00:56:03] <tourguide> k
  53. [00:56:08] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> that's the point of openid
  54. [00:56:50] <tourguide> Instructions for confirming your account have been send to you at kyle....
  55. [00:57:41] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> what does pibb say exactly when you enter tourguide.openid.org and attempt login?
  56. [00:57:54] <tourguide> ill try it again 1 sec
  57. [00:58:27] <tourguide> from here - https://www.myopenid.com/signin_submit it says
  58. [00:58:34] <tourguide> User name or password incorrect
  59. [00:58:39] <tourguide> but it's correct
  60. [00:58:46] <tourguide> i just changed it to test
  61. [00:58:51] <tourguide> used a simple password
  62. [00:59:10] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> now you've registered with myopenid.com?
  63. [00:59:11] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> i am very confused
  64. [00:59:12] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> what openid are you using now?
  65. [00:59:34] <tourguide> i plan to use tourguide.myopenid.com
  66. [00:59:50] <tourguide> i registered with both but wont be using OpenID.org
  67. [00:59:58] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> oh
  68. [01:00:11] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> so you have a 'tourguide' user on myopenid now..
  69. [01:00:20] <tourguide> yes
  70. [01:00:32] <tourguide> will it pull my info from OpenID.org>
  71. [01:00:37] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> and for the username you are entering 'tourguide' and using 'test' or whatever it was as the password?
  72. [01:00:50] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> no
  73. [01:00:51] <tourguide> correct
  74. [01:00:52] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> how would myopenid.com know you ever visited openid.org
  75. [01:01:01] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> only you know that
  76. [01:01:07] <tourguide> i it wouldn't
  77. [01:01:28] <tourguide> so im rebuilding it now - my account
  78. [01:01:52] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> so you are logged in to myopenid.com now? O_o
  79. [01:01:59] <tourguide> yes :-))))
  80. [01:02:06] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> I thought it wasn't letting you login...
  81. [01:02:09] <tourguide> looking at https://www.myopenid.com/settings
  82. [01:02:15] <tourguide> it wasnt
  83. [01:02:18] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> then what is the problem?
  84. [01:02:20] <tourguide> i was trying openid.org
  85. [01:02:33] <tourguide> tourguide.openid.org
  86. [01:02:37] <tourguide> to login
  87. [01:03:18] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> alrighty
  88. [01:03:20] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> OpenID Discovery Failure
  89. [01:03:26] <tourguide> yah - whats new
  90. [01:03:30] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> I'll poke the JanRainer's about it :)
  91. [01:03:38] <tourguide> glad im using myopenid.com
  92. [01:04:06] <PibbRelay> <keturn> about what?
  93. [01:05:04] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> pibb seems incompatible with openid.org url's, 'OpenID Discovery Failure' is the error given
  94. [01:06:39] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> the only thing I'm seeing which is peculear about openid.org accounts is that the url 'tourguide.openid.org' appears to redirect to a different address, and it's the different address which actually contains the openid.server information, rather than serving it from that actual subdomain
  95. [01:07:03] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> no wait.. confusingly, it redirects, but only to a different address on the same subdomain
  96. [01:07:14] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> weirdo asp.net site O_o
  97. [01:07:17] <tourguide> would it help to have the pass
  98. [01:07:30] <tourguide> i change remove it later tonoght
  99. [01:07:51] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> no, it's fine, the error is before authentication
  100. [01:07:55] <tourguide> k
  101. [01:08:26] <_keturn> It's probably best if you never give your account password to anyone on IRC. Or anywhere else.
  102. [01:08:39] * tjohns (n=tjohns@cpe-76-170-58-80.socal.res.rr.com) Quit ()
  103. [01:08:46] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> entering the address it redirects to, 'http://tourguide.openid.org/user.aspx?username=tourguide', doesn't help either, though instead of getting a friendly error from pibb, I get an Application Error (the 500 error of no specific debug information rails likes to give!)
  104. [01:08:56] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> if we needed to, we could register our own openid.org account :)
  105. [01:09:10] <tourguide> myopenid.com - blurb is too long! Blurbs must be shorter than 1000 characters - why dont i get an alert why im tryping in the box? oh well - also might want to make the Notice Alert in Red
  106. [01:09:51] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> this isn't the place to make non-openid feedback about a particular service. On pibb, there is a myOpenID channel you can go to for that :)
  107. [01:10:04] <tourguide> k, cool sorry thanks
  108. [01:10:12] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> I'm forwarding it to that channel now :)
  109. [01:14:16] <PibbRelay> <keturn> oh, I see what's going on. openid.org issues a Location header that's not an absolute URL.
  110. [01:14:48] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> ahh, those arseholes
  111. [01:14:54] <tourguide> ha
  112. [01:14:59] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> mind you it's become semi-standard practice these days :(
  113. [01:16:27] <tourguide> ok - thanks everyone - Im setup with a OpenID - will spread the word - http://tourguide.myopenid.com/

  116. [01:32:54] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> maybe someone should throw a print out of the HTTP standard tied to a brick through their window? :P
  117. [01:32:55] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> or politely write an email explaining the situation? :)
  118. [01:32:57] <PibbRelay> <keturn> poor guys have had enough bricks thrown through their windows from people mad at them for squatting openid.org
  119. [01:32:58] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> Both are good options!
  120. [01:32:59] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> Both are good options!
  121. [01:33:58] <PibbRelay> <Blueberry> great o..o

  157. [09:11:02] <Makenshi> I found a wireless captive portal solution that supports openid

  162. [09:44:57] <danbri> Mekenshi, that's great :)
  163. [09:45:06] <danbri> *Makenshi, sorry
  164. [09:45:55] <Makenshi> No worries, I thought it was pretty neat too :)
  165. [09:46:11] <Makenshi> I might have a go setting it up on a separate ssid at work
  166. [09:48:26] * danbri blogging it
  167. [09:52:19] <Makenshi> Interestingly, they also have a method to permit one's facebook friends to log in. I wonder, is there any method like foaf that could be used in conjunction with OpenID in that manner?
  168. [09:52:47] <danbri> once you know who someone else, something like FOAF should drop in nicely
  169. [09:52:58] <danbri> what we were always missing in the foaf community ... ...was yep, openid
  170. [09:53:26] <danbri> you should be able to express restrictions on who uses your wireless, like they're in such and such public group
  171. [09:53:40] <Makenshi> That would be neat.. specify your openid, and the level of friends you want to permit access (1, 2, 3, ...)
  172. [09:53:46] <danbri> and defer ACL maintainance to sites like Facebook (which yes, shoudl expose foaf or equivalent, as an opt-in)
  173. [09:53:47] <tjohns> That would be very cool.
  174. [09:54:33] <Makenshi> Although is that feasible, because the only way i can think of to verify someone is to enumerate the friends of each and every friend until you find a match
  175. [09:54:51] <Makenshi> That would quickly consume a lot of resources
  176. [09:56:12] <danbri> should be possible to cache
  177. [09:56:33] <danbri> if google can search every word in every public document ever, ... matching people against friend lists ought to be do-able
  178. [09:56:43] <danbri> its getting the level of aggregation right that's tricky
  179. [09:56:53] <danbri> not per-person, not per-planet, but somewhere in the middle
  180. [09:57:13] <tjohns> I don't think it would be that tough...
  181. [09:57:51] <danbri> i wonder if the community wireless guys here in Bristol would be interested
  182. [09:58:16] <danbri> apart from http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2008/01/my_open_wireles.html ... lots of folk these days close off their networks (mainly I guess because the boxes default to closed)
  183. [09:58:34] <Makenshi> danbri: you're not far from me then, in Birmingham
  184. [09:58:48] * danbri waves in a north-easterly direction :)
  185. [09:58:53] <Makenshi> :o)
  186. [09:58:56] <danbri> pleased to meet you
  187. [09:59:05] <Makenshi> Likewise *tips hat*
  188. [09:59:23] <Makenshi> Wasn't it one of the Bristol guys that got poached by UKERNA?

  190. [09:59:57] <Makenshi> Josh I think
  191. [10:01:19] <Makenshi> Kinda makes me want to go write a Thesis, but I am moving to Denmark next month
  192. [10:09:41] * hillsy (i=shaunh@npfit2.dh.bytemark.co.uk) has joined #openid
  193. [10:12:20] <danbri> UKERNA, not sure... I'm a bit out of the university loop
  194. [10:14:24] <Makenshi> They changed their name recently to JANET(UK)
  195. [10:16:59] * danbri scribbles http://danbri.org/words/2008/01/17/254
  196. [10:19:42] <Makenshi> random trivia, my father obtained his degree from Bristol University
  197. [10:20:20] <Makenshi> and Bristol is the hq of the supplier of our change management system
  198. [10:20:50] * danbri worked there (standardsy project work) 95-2001 or so
  199. [10:21:03] <danbri> what do you work on?
  200. [10:21:18] <Makenshi> I am a sysadmin for a he/fe college
  201. [10:21:46] <Makenshi> I'm optimistic that I can find a similar position at Aalborg University
  202. [10:22:15] <Makenshi> I am going to fosdem this year, wonder if there's anything I could do to promote OpenID
  203. [10:22:23] <Makenshi> I am mainly helping out with Amarok
  204. [10:24:03] <Makenshi> My blog is mostly about virtualization as that is a lot of what i do at work

  208. [11:13:42] <Makenshi> On another topic, I am annoyed with the BBC. Their podcasts continue to list shows which are no longer available. I corresponded with them and they said that they can only keep material for 7 days due to licensing.
  209. [11:13:58] <Makenshi> If that is the case, they should remove them from the podcast feeds

  238. [17:03:53] <evanpro> Ugh
  239. [17:04:05] <evanpro> Hey, does anyone want to have a chat about BotBouncer?
  240. [17:04:21] <evanpro> It seems to have absolutely zero internationalization support.
  241. [17:04:30] <evanpro> It doesn't seem to vary on language at all.
  242. [17:05:12] <evanpro> So someone who's a Chinese speaker and logs into my Chinese-language OpenID-supporting Web site won't get past the bot bouncer, unless they can figure out the English on the page.
  243. [17:05:55] <evanpro> Not only that, but the pictures are very culturally sensitive.
  244. [17:07:38] <evanpro> For example, an array of Ticketron tickets looks like they match "ticket" to most, but to people outside the US, they may not look like tickets at all.
  245. [17:08:08] <evanpro> I'm mentioning this because I've been demoing OpenID to friends and colleagues in Montreal...
  246. [17:08:14] <evanpro> ... French-speakers ...
  247. [17:08:23] <evanpro> ... and they all balk when the get to a BotBouncer page.
  248. [17:08:48] <evanpro> Clearly, if you don't speak English like you live in Portland, the OpenID world has nothing for you.
  249. [17:08:53] <evanpro> Fuck off, bot.
  250. [17:11:22] <evanpro> Or an array of photos of scissors, which are known as "shears" in the rest of the English-speaking world.
  251. [17:12:11] <evanpro> I'd like to contrast with a simple CAPTCHA, which shows a string of characters to type in.
  252. [17:12:25] <evanpro> It's clear what you have to do, since everyone has CAPTCHAs.
  253. [17:13:03] <evanpro> This might make a better blog post than an IRC chat.

  258. [17:41:57] <danbri> so yup, write it up ... with screenshots, and maybe people will find resources out there to help
  259. [17:42:35] <danbri> whether its botbouncer or similar sites, definitely worth documenting the issue

  269. [18:54:18] <kyevan> Hi! Has anyone experemented with using OpenID for identifying users on non-web based things?
  270. [18:55:47] <PibbRelay> <mpg4> evanpro: you know that botbouncer is a completely optional service, right?
  271. [18:56:18] <Makenshi> kyevan: it can be used to authenticate people on wireless networks
  272. [18:57:18] <PibbRelay> <mpg4> as in: if you have lots of french- or chinese-speaking users on your site, don't use botbouncer?
  273. [18:57:26] <PibbRelay> <mpg4> kyevan: The Oauth project may be what you're looking for

  277. [19:01:15] <kyevan> Background: I've been tinkering with a (non-web-based) virtual world chat thing (like we don't have enough already >_> But this one's mine!)
  278. [19:02:19] <kyevan> And being able to log in via OpenID in that sort of thing seems like it /should/ be possible, but I haven't seen anyone playing with that sort of use

  283. [19:25:00] <keturn> kyevan: well, the fact that, as an OpenID RP, you're strongly encouraged to let the user use whatever OpenID provider they want, means that you have to be able to give the user a web browser so they can do whatever login mechanism their provider needs
  284. [19:26:09] <keturn> so if popping up a web browser is an option for you application, it's doable. If not, you need a protocol that has some other interface specified.
  285. [19:37:15] <kyevan> keturn: Poping up a web browser is, indeed, feasable.
  286. [19:37:45] <kyevan> In fact, it's something I'd probably want to do anyway for other things (Help, linking out to whatever, etc))
  287. [19:40:00] * armin390 (n=armin@unaffiliated/arminb) has joined #openid
  288. [19:41:33] <keturn> in that case, you can open the browser with an OpenID request. probably the easiest thing to implement is have a listener on localhost that the browser gets redirected back to when it's done.
