Really? Is that in the 1.0 AX spec or is there a newer version? Reading it it seems that all is initiated by an RP, so the OP has no way of letting RPs know about updated attributes, or am I getting it wrong? > However, no OP or RP to my knowledge implements this part of the spec. > So unless you're planning to own or control all of the sites involved, > it's too soon to achieve what you're describing. No problem I am implementing 100% of the specs in PHP for my own sites using OpenID. If all goes well I may even release the code as Open Source, but first I need to figure out how to solve these problems with the existing spec versions. > -- > Andrew Arnott > "I [may] not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the > death your right to say it." - S.
