forforthought··on Government launches login.gov to simplify access to public services
Given that this is a typical identity provider, I'm curious there's interest to make this service available to the saas industry at large.

For example, I'd rather NOT have to manage login credentials for my bank, mortgage car payment, and various airlines.

I'd rather let login.gov handle it.

Moreover, as a saas provider, I wouldn't mind deferring this liability to someone other than google or facebook.
