Greetings.
I'm happy to announce that we have moved our new OpenID identity
provider (fas-openid) into production and it's ready for general use.
OpenID allows you to use an existing identity (like a Fedora Project
account) on sites or applications that support OpenID authentication.
Fedora Project account holders can use this openid identity provider
by specifying:
username.id.fedoraproject.org
on any OpenID enabled relying party application.
(Where 'username' is your Fedora Account system login).
More information is available at:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/OpenID
Code for this provider (under GPLv2+) is available at:
https://github.com/fedora-infra/fas-openid
Please report any issues or problems to the Fedora infrastructure trac:
https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/newticket
Many thanks to Patrick Uiterwijk for all the hard work on
expanding and re implementing this service.
