Idea: up-to-date business card

[Pius A. Uzamere II]

Hi there,

The latest OpenID spec provides for this using the Simple Registration
(SReg) extension.  This functionality is optional for consumers and servers
to implement.  See
http://openid.net/specs/openid-simple-registration-extension-1_0.html#response_formatfor
more information.

Cheers,
Pius
