Re: New Fedora openid provider (fas-openid) in service

I think that Raul is talking about the code being hosted on github.

Nothing in fedora infrastructure is proprietary.  And nothing that the user gets when interacting with our websites is proprietary.  But github is certainly proprietary and we are hosting some of our code there (just like many other open source projects).  If that seems like something that we wouldn't have done previously then you could see it as a change in policy.

However, we've never attempted to check if our developers are coding in a proprietary ide or using a non-free os to connect to infrastructure.  We've never frowned on people hosting their own code that we use in fedora on sourceforge, github, or other propriety hosting.  So in that manner, it doesn't seem like a big leap to start hosting code that we maintain solely for infrastructure there as well. (And to be even more fair, the openid server that puiterwijk wrote is probably a good starting point for other sites wanting an openid server of their own.  So hosting it on github has the potential to bring more committers to it.)
