There are a bunch of options for Authentication, and a lot of wiki pages, many of them sorely outdated, that people need to wade through to try to figure out what to use.
Desired: Lots of updating of this documentation – in the individual module pages, and perhaps especially in the main Authentication page.
Proposal: As a start, we build a matrix of data about the various options, and expand it over time to try to have it be the go-to location for picking an option. FURTHER proposal—Put the date that the particular package was updated in the summary, so there’s an at-a-glance view of what package has had recent fixes/work.
I (lindes) am going to get things started, and then I encourage others to join me. We can share meta-ideas about what things need doing on this page.
Sound good? Let’s make the status quo better!
