Not only is this a better user experience, but it's also a bit more, um, "open" -- which would seem to serve a project like Drumbeat well. HTH, Phillip. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Visit the registration page 2. Look for other ways to register, e.g., OpenID 3. Feel a grave sense of despair that I need to set-up yet another user account just for Drumbeat Actual Results: Sadness. Expected Results: Fast log-in bliss.
Thanks Phillip, That's a great call , you have my vote :-) Best, Paul Booker Appcoast

Agreed! Have added to development roadmap https://wiki.mozilla.org/Drumbeat/Roadmap#Beta_Site_1.0 Question is when and how to implement. a) Before Beta or after Beta launch? b) Need analysis and recommendations on best way to implement.

Interestingly with the OpenID module enabled anyone who has a Mozilla.SN account will be able to login to mozilla Drumbeat with their Mozilla.SN profile URI eg. http://mozilla.status.net/paulbooker Best, Paul Booker Appcoast
@Matt @Paul Shall we enable this module on Drumbeat stage & take it for a spin? Best, Paul Booker Appcoast
Hi Paul, Yeah, why not. The Drupal openid module is fairly simple, so let's see if it "just works". Cheers, Paul
Hi Paul The OpenID is now enabled on production. Currently a user with an existing drumbeat account can add their OpenID account and then later login to drumbeat using their OpenID account but a new user who tries to login with their OpenID account still has to provide a username / email address on drumbeat.org which is not ideal. I'll continue investigating Monday Best, Paul Booker Appcoast
