Golly, Jason, if we don't use OpenID, what would we use? Maybe... BBAuth?!?! Some disclosure on biases might make this panel more attractive.

Hi Evan. If BBauth (and Google's use of SAML) and other proprietary authentication approaches are worthy of bringing into the discussion, then they will be brought into the discussion. This is a technical panel, not a marketing panel.
