Hi Daniel,

Yesterday, I enabled OpenID on the armedbear project. trac now simply offers 2 login links: 1 for local account and one for openid. i haven't discovered how to associate the two yet.

Reading https://bitbucket.org/Dalius/authopenid-plugin/wiki/Home I conclude we should be able to provide a mapping service to the OpenID module which maps openIDs to internal user accounts. My idea would be to allow users to create an .openid file in their home directories; these files could be concatenated by the mapping service on every request when the cache is older than 15 minutes - or something alike.

All we need now is someone to develop the service.


Bye,

Erik.

Assuming it doesn't increase the spam load, I'd prefer using OpenID to
creating a local trac account.

Curious whether OpenID accounts could be associated with local accounts as
a bonus feature.
