2004-12-01Sxip - Pronounced "Skip" Is Digital IdentitySxip.org - Sxip Overview. 2004-10-31: The first thing I notice about this site is that it uses HTTPS from the get-go. Recommended by Martin Terre Blanche as an open mechanism for single sign-on, Martin also raises concern for the root-authority model that appears to be at the heart of the Sxip open-source methodology. Since all of my web sites do ASP, I can't wait to see if the PHP form of the developer's kit can be converted. One cool thing the folks did (beside find a four-letter domain name, remarkable by itself), is have sxip.org for the general stuff, sxip.net for the technical stuff, and sxip.com for the business stuff. I notice other teams often use .org for the open-source site, .com for the commercial site. Martin expresses a concern for the reliability of the model and what can make it dependable, including from a dependable top-level root. I wonder if it could be made to work with a reputation-oriented trust system (in the OpenPGP manner) or whether it really must be authority based.Since I have learned about Ping Identity, I wonder what the connection is between these two open-source methodologies. It would be nifty to do the whole job in JavaScript, especially for the lightweight authentication and attestation/assertion machinery that I am looking for.
