How to login with Open Id

Open Id allows you to use an already existing account (like a Google or Yahoo email login) to log into WebProtege. This allows you to use a username and password that is normally used for webmail to log into WebProtege.

No private information about your external account (passwords or email addresses) is held or even accessed by WebProtege. The validation of your account is all done by the external provider.
