Bug ID: 17486
Summary: Remove 'Mozilla Persona' as an authentication method
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low
Component: Authentication

Persona never really took off, and although many browsers currently support it,
very few services actually implement it.
This has lead to it's founders, Mozilla, to end the project. In their own
words:
=================================================================================
Persona is no longer actively developed by Mozilla. Mozilla has committed to
operational and security support of the persona.org services until November
30th, 2016.
On November 30th, 2016, Mozilla will shut down the persona.org services.
Persona.org and related domains will be taken offline.
If you run a website that relies on Persona, you need to implement an
alternative login solution for your users before this date.
For more information, see this guide to migrating your site away from Persona:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Identity/Persona_Shutdown_Guidelines_for_Reliers
=================================================================================
Given the above, and that the Persona authentication methods as a whole are no
longer being actively maintained by anyone anywhere to ensure ongoing security,
we should deprecate the option from koha.
