Not just "another marketing attempt", our keynote on Identity 2.0 at the O'Reilly Open Source Conference has generated a lot of positive feedback.

Geoff Broadwell with Onlamp comments that Dick's rapid fire speech on "Identity 2.0 (distributed, user-empowered, secure identity management) is probably the first presentation on identity management I've ever seen that was actually good." Similarly, Andrew Carter states, "the problem they are trying to solve is critical...basically it is an open method for presenting credentials from a trusted verifiable source that will be honored anywhere on the web. It is more than just single sign-on but that is a big part. It is probably somewhat in the spirit of Passport but hopefully without the flaws."

We hope so too, Andrew! More information on how the Sxip Network is different from other identity systems is on the sxip.net site.
