Abstractioneer

Monday, May 7, 2007 Tim Bray just blogged about openid.sun.com, which is an identity provider for Sun employees only.  Interesting!  Though technically one would like to be able to do independent assertions about user centric identities ("works for Sun" being a reasonable assertion one could make about any identity).  I suppose though that someone could use OP delegation to point http://me.example.org to openid.sun.com and achieve part of the same effect.  And in the end you'll need to rely on something like openid.sun.com to validate assertions presumably.
