Bug Description

BrowserID underwent a rebranding / final branding and is now Persona. That change should be reflected in Mahara as well so that people know they are at the right place.

Given that the underlying protocol / technology behind Persona is still called BrowserID, there is no need to change the name of the auth plugin in the code or to change non-user-facing strings. The plugin should however be presented as "Persona" to admins and users.

As part of this branding change, it might be interesting from a visual standpoint to replace the "Sign in with Persona" text link with this graphical (css+html -- not an image) button:

Are these the only buttons, Francois? Or would they also exist in different dimensions, e.g. greater height than width? Or could we style them ourselves a bit to match the other buttons on the page more at least in style? In 1.6 we will have a heading "Login via" and then the buttos "BrowserID" (or actually then "Persona") and "SSO". Thus, "Sign in with" becomes very redundant and shouldn't really be used.

Would you prefer just to have "Persona" and not "Mozilla Persona"?

Those are the default buttons that we expect most people will use, but you can tweak them if you want given that they're just CSS. You should certainly remove "sign in" from the button if you're going to have that in the heading already.

Also, the CSS for the button should ideally be part of the default / base theme in Mahara so that theme authors can modify them to fit better with the rest of their designs.

As far as I know the branding we're going for is just "Persona" in most cases. So that's what I'd recommend in Mahara as well.

summary: - Rename BrowserID to Mozilla Persona
+ Rename BrowserID to Persona
