I'm wary of ever reading too much into any Press Release, but the claims of \
TrustBearer to be applying OpenID to a Microsoft-branded Health Records concept do \
seem to be worthy of mention : http://www.trustbearer.com/news/healthvault.html

Nice that this example of some mainstream adoption is in a space that is (a) formally \
regulated, (b) high in security policies, (c) addresses highly individualistic issues \
involving consumer privacy expectations, (d) able to bundle openid assurances with \
2-factor authentication assurances.

Also, its noting that Microsoft were willing to lend their brand name to the \
announcement - and be publicly associated with OpenID . Knowing Microsoft, the openid \
auth protocol will be just one a several protocols one can use to interact (e.g. do \
SSO). _______________________________________________
