<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Hi,</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">I'm just asking something which was raised as an issue in my Gitlab repository for OpenTrailView (<a href="http://www.opentrailview.org" class="OWAAutoLink" id="LPlnk24636" previewremoved="true">www.opentrailview.org</a>;
fully FOSS 360 panorama site which uses OSM ways to connect panoramas together).
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">The person who raised the issue requested that OSM logins be used on OpenTrailVIew rather than (as currently) its own login system. I suspect the reason is security-related as it allows users to use an existing trusted
authentication system.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">As OpenTrailView does not include provision for editing OSM data, I suspect the answer is no - but is it acceptable for third-party OSM-related sites which do not edit the data to 'piggyback' on OSM's authentication system
like this?</p>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Thanks,</p>
