[Code] Library to help become an OpenID Provider

[Bill Shupp]

Nathan,

While I haven't looked much at the provider side of the php-openid library,
I suspect it's going to be the most robust and tested.  I'm planning to add
provider support for my PEAR
<http://pear.php.net/package/openid/redirected>offering very soon for
use on the
php.net sites, but that's likely a couple of months off.  But I'd certainly
welcome more use cases for it.  :)

Cheers,

Bill
