User Authentication

From SackWiki

For web based sack sources, we shouldn't have to manage accounts for each site. blogs, wikis, galleries, oh my!

Let's talk about:

• SSO
  • PubCookie
  •  ???
• Single Authenticator
  • OpenID
  • Authenticate back to IMAP for everything? pam_imap?
• others

Over on the Talk page

List of sites with authentication:

• http://gallery.sackheads.org
  • gallery2
• http://blogs.sackheads.org
  • wpmu
• http://wiki.sackheads.org
  • mediawiki
• http://sackheads.org/home
  • apache2 + homegrown
• http://snadra.com/birthdays
  • apache2
• http://fortunes.nugnug.net:3002/flog
  • dunno how this is authenticated :)

THIS IS ONLY FOR AUTHENTICATION. AUTHORIZATION WOULD STILL BE EACH APP's RESPONSIBILITY
