hi marc,
this looks interesting :) i absolutely understand why you mentioned this
java-solution.
do you plan to use this as a web-service you can call from flex/flash or
what are your
plans regarding it?
would be nice to hear how your experiences look like concerning the api
they mention
on their site... might even become handy for the red5 guys around here;
or does red5
already has something like this? don't know about this detail...
anyhow good luck with your project! :)

It's the authentication/permissions piece of a project.
It looks like the best starting point so far. I may end up using that

From what I understood, open ID is a specification for how to do a
cross-domain single login.
But thinking about it, maybe there's an open implementation of Open ID
that would be what I'm looking for. I'll have to investigate that
route sometime soon.
