This is fantastic! I'm really excited to see Mozilla improving the login experience for users across the web. It is a problem that is sorely in need of better solutions. For the Node.js developers in the crowd, I'm happy to see Mozilla is using Passport.js (http://passportjs.org/ http://passportjs.org/) (which I'm the developer of) to power the OpenID/OAuth dances when doing identity bridging. You can see it in action at the BigTent repo: https://github.com/mozilla/browserid-bigtent https://github.com/mozilla/browserid-bigtent Passport.js can be used in your own applications to easily perform the server-side part of Persona/BrowserID as well as integrate with or transition from an existing login system.
