CAS vs. OpenID

Both methods seems to be similar functionally. So, what method(s) need to be supported for SL resources?

  • Both methods need coding for some SL Web applications. alsroot 14:43, 20 September 2011 (EDT)
  • Some applications already support OpenID, but is it possible to use OpenID authentication and LDAP for users metadata and authorisation at the same time? alsroot 14:43, 20 September 2011 (EDT)
  • Supporting only OpenID (without password based authentication as a spare method) seems to be overkill, at least for non tech people. alsroot 14:43, 20 September 2011 (EDT)
    However, most 'not tech' people already have an OpenID provider account, and such providers will continue to make that easier (and more secure), all being a cost-free benefit to us. --FGrose 16:04, 20 September 2011 (EDT)
