again: see openspending.
@pwalsh yes, that's exactly what we've been looking at 😄 If you have any specific details here that would be useful -- e.g. talking to @akariv my understanding is that there is no "post-sign-up" flow to do things like send welcome emails or set usernames. That's the kind of thing we'll still need to implement.
Originally, we felt there was a requirement to have simple sign up plus we thought auth0 would be relatively straightforward. Unfortunately (see e.g. #195) this has not been the case and we're looking at simplifying to just google and/or github.
OpenSpending allows setting usernames. As for welcome emails and so forth - do we really need them for the MVP? When we use an oauth provider, there are no passwords to reset and so on, so not sure we need it.

FIXED. See updated description above with analysis and recommendation. I've also created a new issue #268 with the next steps
We use auth0 for user management. We want to know what options we have for simple google and/or github login in flask
We are not sure Auth0 is the best option and want to look at alternatives.
