What prcentage of the fast expanding number of oauth sites do you predict 
will be shib/saml powered within a year say?

Yes they all want to interwork with google, just as 50 ssl server vendors 
wanted to interwork with netscape (rather than do darpa's shttp protocol - 
which netscape didn't support natively...).

Google is, I would claim, a leader in the Internet identity space,
especially in OAuth, and is also very much a SAML supporter.
