I was referring to AROUNDMe which is a completely separate product. 
Please re-read my original email. As you note our OpenID server is "just 
another OpenID server", however this one supports decentralized 
bookmarking, messaging and social networking.

AROUNDMe only requires an OpenID. There is no user/registration system. 
Download it and look at the source if you would like to check my 
statement further.


Similarly special note: Open specification, free and open source 
software development requires many hours of energy from volunteers. A 
positive and engaging attitude is beneficial to both them and that process.
