When you search our wiki for "OAuth", there's only one hit: A page with
some brief thoughts on security and authentication. An application for
such a project should explain how OAuth fits in to all that and which
problems it would solve exactly.

But then again, why reinvent the wheel? If people are happily using
phpMyAds (they changed the name - forgot what the new name is) with
Geeklog, why spend our scarce resources on a new plugin that does
effectively the same?

Of course, that's only my impression (i.e. that people are happy or at
least okay with what's currently available). I may be wrong and there
may be interest in a better system ...
