So FAS does its own authorization & authentication, rather than using another system to which we can plug in?There is an OpenID provider in FAS. The problem is that openid can only do authentication, not authorization. If we want to store group information in FAS (and we do... but it may or may not be essential) then we need to go beyond OpenID. FAS provides a JSON API for people to query. That's how mediawiki and the TG web applications work. koji and the actual servers on which fedora infrastructure runs are synced from the fas server on an hourly cron job. If possible, using the JSON API is the way to go.
