One part of the problem with OpenID is that it is ripe for spamming of sites,
as anyone can create a provider ( and there is software that can be freely
downloaded to create one )

It would be convenient for a KDE OpenID provider to exist ( even if limited to
authenticating for *.kde.org sites ) as we know that can be trusted. Also,
OpenID support has had problems in the past  ( see xBases ) so I don't think we
can rely on it for single unified sign on to KDE websites.
