OpenID has been getting more and more famous and many OpenSource projects have already adopted it … http://openid.net/presentations.bml http://www.openidbook.com/chapters/OpenIDBook-Draft-13.pdf There are libraries for the most common programming languages (Python, Ruby, Java, Perl, .Net) http://openid.net/wiki/index.php/Libraries How does it work? Get an OpenID userid from an OpenID provider (wordpress.com, aol, livejournal,.. OpenIDServers) or from your own provider OpenID (see Run_your_own_identity_server, i.e crowd is used by several big companies but you have to pay for it if you use it not for openSource projects) and then you can use that account (if you want) to enter all other OpenID enables sites (https://www.myopenid.com/directory) http://openid.net/pres/2007-kveton-openid-5.pdf

Anche Google sceglie OpenID come sistema di Identity e SSO. Vedete http://punto-informatico.it/p.aspx?id=2155653 e http://uk.techcrunch.com/2008/01/09/google-ibm-and-verisign-to-join-openid/ Con la sola userid/password di Google (o di wordpress.com, AOL, o qualsiasi altro provider OpenID) sara’ possibile accedere (in SSO) a tutti i siti OpenID enabled.

Anche sourceforge accetta utenze OpenID! http://openid.net/2008/05/01/sourceforge-allows-openid-logins/
