Hi,

This looks good, congratulations!

It would be nice if it could be integrated in XWiki (with your kindly
offered help), as it provides support for many authentication
protocols. However, this must not be done in a haste. We should
establish some goals, an implementation plan (including eventual
changes needed in the XWiki engine), and a target version. I think
that 1.0 is out of the question, so we need to decide if it is a
feature that must go into 1.1 or it can wait until the XWiki 2.0
architecture is finalized.

(@Vincent) Should we establish a developer meeting on IRC to discuss
this? Or are mailing lists OK?

On another topic, how stable is the ESEO API? Can we count on a
future-compatible integration?

Thanks,
Sergiu
