 ==== How this might work - OpenID ====
 Have php.net become an OpenID identity server. And for example, someone may use any OpenID identity to submit a bug report, add a user comment to the PHP manual, manage my.php, etc. And the php.net identity is required for certain tasks like SVN commits and mirror/user management via master. Basically, anything using a login today.
+==== Activities that use authentication today ====
+  * Dealing with bugs. Some bug activities require @php.net accounts.
+  * Editing wiki pages
+  * Managing accounts, adding/editing (also for pear and pecl)
+  * Managing events (cal.php)
+  * Managing mirrors
+  * Managing user notes
+  * User pages at pecl.php.net and pear.php.net
+  * Activities at doc.php.net
+  * Some people.php.net information (future)
 ==== Notes ====
-  * Several places rely on this authentication, from www.php.net, mirrors, pecl.php.net, and likely differing domains
   * Consider doing this before changing version control systems (from CVS to SVN)
+  * Consider binding VCS access control on a per-user basis (eliminating the avail file)
   * RIP Magical Cookie, and thanks for all the memories
-  * Gwynne - In an implementation of this idea, consider the thought of binding VCS access control on a per-user basis (eliminating the avail file)
+  * Consider a fallback system for those who prefer separate logins to each site. This suggests a new auth backend that OpenID can be plugged into.
