OAuth Has Ruined Everything

You know, you're one of the people in the best position to start a "New Persona" project — it's not something just anybody can pick up. You know what went right and wrong in Mozilla's approach both on the social and technical side. You also know how to best leverage the existing Persona userbase (eg keeping some backwards compatibility).

I would love to donate my time for a cause like this and I know I'm not the only one. Shoot me an email if you ever go through with it.

I would also love to help out. But I also refrain from starting that on my own. "New Persona" (or "Persona NG?") should be started and managed by somebody who knows what they are doing.

It would be really great if some Persona insider would provide an umbrella for this and review the activities, if they they don't have the time to do the actual work. I'd love to join such a project.

There wouldn't need to be a new version of any sort, Mozilla released the Persona project to the community. It can still be improved upon.
