This ...I <i>really</i> don't want to get any hopes up. This is one of my goals, but that doesn't necessarily mean it is going to happen soon, or at all.<br /><br />The topic has been brought up a number of times in the past, and has been pushed off because we have a lot of much higher priority tasks. The last time this was seriously discussed was in Berlin during the dev conference.<br /><br />At the conference we decided that OpenID as a provider was likely an easy kill, but OpenID as a consumer would be fairly difficult, as it still has some major usability issues.<br /><br />I should also mention that in the priority of my goals, this is also my lowest priority, as it isn't directly related to my position; I just have a lot of experience with authentication, especially with MediaWiki.<br /><br />As a last note: I was listing <i>my</i> goals for the year. Some of these are explicitly agreed upon with the foundation, and others are not. I've discussed this with the foundation, but it isn't explicitly a goal I'm assumed to achieve.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
