Nabble as an OpenID consumer

[Graham Perrin]

Nabble is superb.

Please:

* do you have in mind a timeline for acceptance of OpenID?

I imagine that you will continue to require from users: at least an e-mail address, for certain purposes (most notably: posts to related mail lists) but acceptance of OpenID will be a major win.

The fewer passwords that users must manage, the better.

Please:

 * is OpenID on the roadmap?

I'm not pushing for a date. Just wondering.

I imagine that developers/supporters are already/regularly busy enough, fielding enquiries about Nabble 1 to 2 migrations, and Nabble 2 re-registration of Nabble 1 users.

Still, if you can bring OpenID neatly into the mix it will be a great incentive.

Thanks
Graham

We will take a look at OpenID in a few months.
First we have to finish some high priority issues.
Thanks for the suggestion.

@ Hugo

Thanks for the advice.

With the future timeline in mind, I now know how to proceed with recommendation of Nabble for use at Freeman Centre (my place of work — multi-institutional, multi-LDAP etc.).

For your priority issues: good luck!

Incidentally, where recently I have been unusually busy in the Support forum, I suspect (hope) that the last of my significant questions has been asked, so I should be quieter from now on :)

Best regards
Graham

Please, is OpenID on the roadmap yet?

[Hugo <Nabble>]

Yes, it is in the roadmap, but we still need some time to finish the high priority features.

is facebook on the roadmap?
facebook is the most biggest social network.

[Hugo <Nabble>]

Nabble will also move to the social network area in the next months and I am not sure if this will have any integration with facebook. We will certainly take a look at it when we are close to this goal.

Yes, I agree Nabble interfaced with OpenID would be very helpful; I look forward to that!

[Graham Perrin]

Please, any idea when this will happen?

The desire for this is far greater now that multiple registrations and multiple logins are required …

[Hugo <Nabble>]

We can work on this when someone asks for this feature in the premium support forum, which should be available in a few weeks.

Allow OpenID

Thanks!
