Thanks Alex for setting up the design patterns wiki page. Although I think Kevin’s proposal is more complete with examples. I don’t necessary agree that existing certificate should be deleted, which logs user out on their other device, but of course it makes sense if server administrator wants to keep it as simple as possible. Perhaps this is something that could be configurable.

I think the idea of collating mailing-list posts on particular subjects could be useful, though to add value it really needs commentary to summarise the posts and, perhaps more importantly, links to the relevant posts.
I'd certainly want to see links to my original posts if I'm mentioned in reference but otherwise, as far as I'm concerned, if you're happy to curate stuff, then great!

The first post is a copy of Solderpunk's suggestion on how to do
usernames and passwords.
I'd love it if other people also helped collect these, or comment and
refine them, as we all learn more.
