A thread has started on xoops.org (see http://www.xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=55390&viewmode=flat&order=ASC&start=0 ) discussing how we could add multi site logons into Xoops. i.e. registration at one site enables registration at other sites automatically.
I think that this has some merit for Xoops going forward. and would be a powerfull feature. Anyone got any views?

This is called Syndicated Signon, and is discussed in the 2.3 development threads on the authentication layer.
One way to do this is to use the Liberty Alliance project API, but there are others that provide similar API's for syndicated signons.
Lets not reinvent the wheel here.

That's great. No reinvention required :-) Glad to see it is on the schedule at least.
Pemen,
If you need resource for this as stated in your message at xoops.org, I would like to help if you want to share your thoughts on the way to go about it.

Dear akitson!
I have placed this message and it is a very old feature request. This you can see it here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1554604&group_id=41586&atid=430843
No developer has sad out there that it could be interesting.
Or even here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1428138&group_id=41586&atid=430843
However, reminding every half a year refreshes the feature request at all times and make Skalpa beleive that I was correct years ago!!! ;-)
