OpenID is on path of reinventing the wheel: SAML 2.0 addresses broad spectrum of use cases from zero-trust (aka OpenID 1.1) to enterprise grade managed trust. OpenID’s percieved “lightness” evaporates as it tries to address the use cases where trust matters – in the end it will be just about as complicated and as “heavy weight” as SAML, but it is a new wheel. Or conversely, when SAML is deployed with OpenIDish trust, then it is just as light weight.

OpenID’s “openness” is also suspect: while spec is available and many open source implementations exist, there is curious silence about IPR licensing. While various vague promises “not to sue” have been circulated, there is scant little contractual obligations to back these up.
