Just learning about OpenID and really hoping it becomes mainstream. It's just so, like, obvious and important that it just needs to happen.

Would love to see this.

But: "I'll go beyond the basics of OpenID..."

Explaining the basics is already enough of a challenge. Not just explaining it, but explaining how to explain it to others.

I'd like to see discussion of OpenID and Government 2.0. With current policies in place, can it be done?

You can bet this one will be outstanding.

This will be great. It would be great to hear how the OpenID world has changed since last year.

Thumbs up of course. But the question is, will the OpenID user experience problem be solved by SXSW2010?

Great topic and timely

So looking forward to this..
