Reason for not wanting an auth service...

We haven't seen any authentication package that is as platform neutral as possible, and that everyone (or even a majority) of developers can agree on. The same goes for a shopping cart.

Basically, there doesn't appear to be a "one size fits all", and we decided to leave that up to developers.

There is nothing wrong with proposing your authentication package as an addin for CI4, separate from the base framework

I see. Thank you
