Hi there,<br><br>The latest OpenID spec provides for this using the Simple Registration (SReg) extension. This functionality is optional for consumers and servers to implement. See <a href="http://openid.net/specs/openid-simple-registration-extension-1_0.html#response_format">
http://openid.net/specs/openid-simple-registration-extension-1_0.html#response_format</a> for more information.<br><br>Cheers,<br>Pius<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 3/15/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Steven **

I agree on the OpenID thing. I just got my OpenID created a couple of<br>weeks ago. It's nice not relying on any one company to store you<br>information.<br><br>Does the OpenID spec allow for storing additional information besides
<br>just your password?<br><br>-Steven<br><br>On 3/15/07, Peter A Trotter <<a href="mailto:peter.trotter@gmail.com">peter.trotter@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br>> It would be ideal trying to tie this in with OpenID authentication. I've not
