[OpenID] Announcing OpenID Authentication 2.0 - Implementor's Draft 11

I'm a little confused. You list Heraldry as being OpenID Auth 2.0
enabled, but looking at the SVN logs it seems like only the python
library has been seeing activity. (And all of that in a flood of
commits)

Is there any word on when we will see the rest of the libraries
brought up to spec? I'm looking for Java support in particular. Will
there be many major changes upgrading from the current code to the
Auth2.0 code?

I want to code my site (still in private development) to be 2.0
friendly from the get go, but I'm not sure if I should be using the
openid4java code or wait for Heraldry to be updated.
