hi all. i've just posted a openid server plugin for pyblosxom:

   http://snarfed.org/space/pyblosxom+openid+server

if you have a pyblosxom-based site, this plugin lets you log in anywhere that
supports openid logins. it complements josh hoyt's openid comments plugin,
which lets pyblosxom *accept* openid logins for commenting:

   http://www.openidenabled.com/software/pyblosxom

(if you're not familiar with openid or pyblosxom, their home pages are
http://openid.net/ and http://pyblosxom.sf.net/ .)

i'd love to add this plugin to openidenabled.com, but i don't have permission.
josh, or anyone else at janrain, feel free to add it if you want!

will, here's the plugin registry entry:

description:
openid_server.py is a PyBlosxom plugin that implements OpenID 1.1. OpenID is a
distributed authentication protocol, ie a single sign on platform, that uses
URLs as identifiers. If you have a PyBlosxom site, this plugin allows you to
login anywhere that accepts OpenID.

p.s. i'm looking forward to adding openid 2.0 support, too, as soon as the
spec settles! :P
