    <p>I did do a fair amount of googling prior to posting that question. However, I have come accross some answers. Rather than delete my post - I guess I should share the information. If others thought the information was clear, please delete this thread!</p> <p>Firstly, there is a page identifying how to add custom IDP's: <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/gitooldocs/customidps" rel="noreferrer">https://sites.google.com/site/gitooldocs/customidps</a></p> <p>There is also a sample site (<a href="http://www.openidsamplestore.com/localmapping/" rel="noreferrer">http://www.openidsamplestore.com/localmapping/</a>) which uses facebook.</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>How does the advanced demo work for identity providers who are not E-mail providers, such as social networks?</strong> </p> <p>The hardest part about designing the advanced site was to find a way to handle all the edge-cases that can happen with these types of identity providers. Google previously published a summary of best-practices for account-linking that describes why these types of identity providers are so much harder to support. However this demo provides a user self-service mechanism for all the tricky cases to avoid the costs that a website might otherwise occur if those users contact a customer support representative. </p> </blockquote> <p>Finally, a best practices run-down is available here: </p> <p><a href="https://sites.google.com/site/oauthgoog/UXFedLogin/loginlogic" rel="noreferrer">https://sites.google.com/site/oauthgoog/UXFedLogin/loginlogic</a></p> <p><strong>EDIT 1 :</strong></p> <blockquote> <p>If that identity provider asserts email addresses that it does not host, we suggest you also implement additional account linking logic.</p> <p>A future version of GITKit will add support for these type of identity providers, such as social networks, which will avoid the need to implement that logic</p> </blockquote> <p>Perhaps GITKit is the future after-all... Would be nice to have an idea of the time-frame in which this support will be added though...</p> <p><strong>EDIT 2 :</strong></p> <p>Direct from the horses mouth (Eric Sachs @ Google - <a href="http://code.google.com/apis/identitytoolkit/forum.html?place=msg/google-identity-toolkit/u0kLlInzfd4/GFtvmiE2GgwJ" rel="noreferrer">Source Link</a>):</p> <blockquote> <p>That feature is not expected to be generally available in 2011. We are shooting for Q1 2012</p> </blockquote>
