Right, login.ubuntu.com has an additional restriction at the moment by which it doesn't even provide identity URLs to unknown RPs. The plan was to lift this restriction eventually iirc, but even before then there shouldn't be a problem with adding a recognised RP entry for LP we want to start using login.ubuntu.com. We can allow LP to use login.ubuntu.com and remove login.launchpad.net at short notice if needed, though there are other communication issues we'd need to look at for people that aren't used to entering their LP creds into login.ubuntu.com (for non-ubuntu LP users as you mention William). Still it might be an option even before LP becomes a full OpenID RP. achuni. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : launchpad-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
