Just a note, although OpenID should work good for a user with a browser, it will not currently work good for any REST clients, as it is based on cookies and javascript. In a (unfortunately not Restlet-based) website we've created we let the user login with OpenID and have the possibility to create an additional local username and password linked to their account, for use with HTTP Basic auth with any REST-clients (and also if the OpenID server is down...). -- Stian Soiland, myGrid team School of Computer Science The University of Manchester http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~ssoiland/
