Heya Jonathan -- pretty cool. Would be neat to see a homesite implementation, like we have for SXIP/DIX. As well, it would be great if you applied for a CVS account and contributed directly to Drupal CVS. I've discussed how it might be interesting to replace Drupal's built- in distributed authentication with OpenID, as it is a very simple protocol. We've got until Sept. 1st when the next code freeze is. -- Boris Mann Vancouver 778-896-2747 San Francisco 415-367-3595 SKYPE borismann http://www.bryght.com

Thanks! A server implementation is definitely possible and not terribly difficult; almost all of our OpenID implementations include a server API and an example server. -- Jonathan Daugherty JanRain, Inc.
I've updated the Wikipedia to point at this. You don't mind do you? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenID On 5/15/06, Jonathan Daugherty <cygnus@janrain.com> wrote:

Interesting... I'll definitely have a look at this soon.. As Boris has suggested, if we can get a good basic distributed auth system for Drupal core that would also allow it to work with multiple other Identity 2.0 protocols that would be very sweet. Honestly, I've been focused on the SXIP stuff for a while and don't really know much about the details behind OpenID but I'll try to catch up. :) -Rowan

As you probably already know, the best way to do that is to use the Yadis service discovery protocol when implementing support for a given identity protocol. The latest release of our PHP libraries use Yadis for discovery. The current release of the Drupal module only does OpenID, but it can be modified to do Yadis directly and dispatch to OpenID or whatever else is available. This is not trivial, however. -- Jonathan Daugherty JanRain, Inc.

Well, no, that's not necessarily the best way to do it....Yadis adds yet another layer, too. We've already run multiple ID systems in parallel plugged into Drupal, and it all "just works". Each auth module takes care of the authentication system, and "good" protocols allow us to log in directly to existing accounts (using email address as a unique key).

Which is why we likely can't be bothered until there is a more compelling reason to use Yadis. In any case, please do create a CVS account and add your module there, or find someone who would like to be the local maintainer. Thanks, -- Boris

I'm waiting on a response to a CVS application right now. Once it clears, I'll gladly add the module. -- Jonathan Daugherty JanRain, Inc.

You should have got that a few hours ago, please check your spamfilter. Cheers, Gerhard, CVS guy
