Mash Pit OpenID: Vancouver

NOTE: wiki password is mashpit

Want to learn more about OpenID 2.0 and spend an evening hacking on the new code? Join Sxip at the OpenID 2.0 Mash Pit evening in Vancouver. There will be simultaneous events that night in Portland and other locations, with a live webcast amongst us. OpenID is an emerging Identity 2.0 standard for exchanging identity data on the internet. This is for people to come and hack on OpenID 2.0 and figure out how to make it work for their sites or applications.

We'll do a brief introduction on OpenID 2.0 and the new stuff you can do with it such as attribute exchange with the email verification service, followed by 5 minute lightening talks on whatever you want to demo or talk about and then break out into small groups to help people actually dig into the "doing" of OpenID enabling their site. The goal? More hacking, less talking.

When: Wednesday, January 17th, 2007 - 4pm until we're done (see agenda below)

Where: Vancouver, BC - Sxip Identity, 798 Beatty St. (map)

Why: Find out more about the cool new features in OpenID 2.0! See how it can help internet users and sites alike with web single sign-on and exchanging data online

Who: Anyone interested in learning more about OpenID 2.0, finding out how easy it is to get a free OpenID account, and/or how to OpenID enable their website. And for the keeners who want to share the cool things they've done with OpenID.

RSVP: Please add your name below if you can attend and indicate if you'd like to do a lightening talk or what you'd like to discuss/hack on.

Remember to bring your laptops. Sxip will supply lots of wifi, snacks and drinks...
