I don't think anyone has come up with an agreed upon $whatever that a
majority of people like. There is LDAP but that isn't light. There are
kerberos but that isn't easy. And honestly the cool kids only want web
logins these days as servers are a pain and why not just login into
Google/Facebook/Microsoft and let them deal with all that setup.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Flame wars in
sci.astro.orion. I have seen SPAM filters overload because of Godwin's
Law. All those moments will be lost in time... like posts on a BBS...
time to shutdown -h now.
