[OpenID] wiki.openid.net openid support broken

[Andrew Arnott]

I got a response from PBworks.  They say their code doesn't support
delegation (I guess based on Allen's experience that could be qualified as
that they don't support 2.0 delegation but they do support 1.1 delegation)
but that they'll consider it in the future now that I've brought it to their
attention.
