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

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.
