[OpenID board] BOARD VOTE: Motion to update Rails plugin andOpenID.net ...

[Brian Kissel]

Agreed. Should have said "more" vendor neutral. The tradeoff is between neutrality and ease of use. We've gotten plenty of feedback that typing in a url isn't terribly intuitive to non technical users. 

We can just put the text box back up but wanted to make sure we were considering other viable options to address concerns, maximize ux, and save cost.

If we wanted to remain vendor neutral, but also make it easier for users (not have to remember the URL format or type in the full URL), we could also put an ID Selector-like front end on that at least shows the top X number of OPs listed alphabetically and still allow the full manual type in interface (see below).

Brian, ID Selector is NOT vendor neutral :S
