Facebook Connect has been a rushed mess. As a developer for one of the launch partners, I have been frustrated with constant instability, lack of / incoherent documentation, fuzzy launch dates, and most importantly - unclear reasons as to why I should spend time integrating Connect.

The whole idea of FB Connect seems to be getting outside developers to contribute to a closed version of openID.

Agreed. I've been working with it too - for touting how it "opens up facebook" it certainly lacks a lot of features...
