Agreed. This is an argument to allow OAuth login. It is not an argument to privilege any OAuth provider over others, or any OAuth provider over no provider at all. > I regularly give up on filing bug reports against other OSS projects > because I'm frankly too tired to register for > yet-another-JIRA-instance. Likewise, I regularly give up because too much dependence is given to Facebook, or GitHub, or etc. etc. etc. Please don't make a new user's use of one service depend on them having agreed to a specific unrelated corporation's terms of use. They should be free to join whether or not they are a user of GitHub or Facebook or Twitter or JoesOwnProvider or none of the above. -- \ “If I melt dry ice, can I swim without getting wet?” —Steven | `\ Wright | _o__) | Ben Finney -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
