Some leading lights in the US academic community are essentially claiming that certain Java OpenID2 libraries are essentially unusable - to the point where they can only be entirely re-written. Until they are rewritten (which will never happen), no Internet2 funds will be aimed at OpenID2.Its hard to know if the libraries referred to are the XRI libraries or IDP or SP, or AX, or what?

Anyone have any news on the results of the UK OpenID project, from the University of Kent. It should have terminated by now, though it was targetted at OpenID1. (Why anyone would fund university level research into OpenID1 is a mystery to me, unless the initiative is a foil.)
