I clicked on the first link, in the announcement of one of their adopters "The Eclipse Foundation" (actually their Orion project: https://orionhub.org/), to see what the sign in flow was like. I already had a Persona account from the early announcements but wanted to see it on a real site.

The experience was bad. I signed in with Persona on Orion to be greeted with "There is no Orion account associated with your Persona email. Please register or contact your system administrator for assistance." Isn't the whole point that I don't need to register?

I clicked the register button to see what more it would require and they wanted a user name, password, and email. With such a poor integration the whole idea of not having to remember another, username and password is lost isn't it? Obviously this particular failure is the fault of the integrating site and not Persona which seems really cool.

Thanks for beinging that up. The specific implementation at OrionHub is Not Ideal -- they should kickstart account creation when you sign in with Persona, like at https://voo.st or http://sloblog.io

I'll reach out to the folks over there and see if that can get that fixed in their next release.
