Hi Al! That's exactly what me, eric and adam are working on right now. We're
going to "come out" hopefully in the next week or so. It's all part of our
work on Identity, and works in a similar way to Passport. We have some
papers etc. and a mailing list (since last night :) but that's all right
now. If you have server programming skills that'd be great!

thanks -mike
