Hiya, One option if you don't have or want an account with any of the existing OpenID providers would be to run your own OpenID server: http://wiki.openid.net/w/page/12995226/Run%20your%20own%20identity%20server I believe that there were some suggestions in the past about trying to standardize on OpenID for access to various LibreOffice web services. In that context, OpenID for the Ask site could just be seen as the first step in the process. If there are no current plans to migrate to OpenID, then I think we should investigate the difficulty of implementing double opt-in with Askbot. --R -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
