[...] Speaking of the Usability Committee, at the last OpenID Foundation Board meeting, an official committee was formed to help continue spearheading the community efforts. Allen Tom of Yahoo! and Luke Shepard of Facebook agreed to co-chair this important new committee. They’re looking for volunteers, so if you’re interested, make sure to get in touch with them. With Breno de Medeiros of Google, Tom is proposing an OpenID User Interface Extension. This an exciting continuation of the work started at the Content Provider Advisory Committee as well as the past User Experience Summits hosted at Yahoo! and Facebook. [...]

Thank you so much for this detailed report — that is significantly faster to parse through than a video stream (although I would have enjoyed a fast audio version with each presentation). I’m very happy to see things getting together, and the experts finally realizing that a) a URL is a swearword, b) it should benefits every player c) we can make this simple. However, one detail still bothers me: the small-type-font light-grey legalese.

Stop thinking that you can use that trick, or that it protects you of anything, or that you have to do it that way, or. . . Just stop. If there are legal requirements, make them as easy to understand as the rest. And don’t write anything on the screen that you do not intend the users to read and grok. If it’s beta, just write: “This product is being tested on a large population; we do not guarantee that it will work; don’t put anything that you can’t replace in here; you cannot sue us for any failure.” No sentence with more then 10 words; no words that is not one of the 1500 most common in the English language.

You made a fantastic step forward in understanding that commercial relations are not exclusive romances and that all will benefit from well understood collaboration; users will be enjoying all that — don’t ruin these progress with yet another EULA. For the last time: those are legally as void as RIAA threatening letters, and barely more useful.
