US Federal CIO Vivek Kundra spoke about the US government identity initiative
during the O'Reilly Gov 2.0 conference this morning. His remarks were in the
context of things he is doing to make government's IT investments more
efficient.
He gave the example of making campground reservations at recreation.gov, which
currently requires you to create an account that you're unlikely to use again
soon. He said that since you already have identities from Google or Yahoo or
Microsoft, wouldn't it be better to let you use those identities at the
government site? He then said that they were working with the OpenID
Foundation to make that happen.
