authenticating with XMPP ID (jabber address)authenticating with XMPP ID (jabber address)Posted May 28, 2008 18:15 UTC (Wed) by martinfick (subscriber, #4455)In reply to: authenticating with XMPP ID (jabber address) by ajf Parent article: The problem(s) with OpenID
They're not. Actually, they are, I brought HA up on the list last year, and few people thought that it was important. With OpenID 2.0 you can specify your identity provider using XRDS, which uses a mechanism more or less exactly like MX records to specify multiple servers. As mentioned in my previous post, this simply moves the single point of failure to a web server somewhere (if you think it doesn't please explain). This is hardly a reliable replacement for MX records which live in DNS servers which can easily be replicated many places.
