If there would be a decent library and implementation for PHP in the
same quality and extend like OpenID4Java I'd buy that too. So I guess
that a complete client (and server implementation) for PHP would make
integration with the most popular 'so called Web 2.0" applications even
easier. However whatever was available up to now for PHP doesn't match
OpenID4Java...not even close.<div><span class="e" id="q_1155784b09b56584_1"><br>

This week i installed the PHP version on IIS, only to find a README
after a decent number of hours (wasn't easy to set up as i have zero
PHP knowledge) that said no authentication or anything was available. I
can understand why for illustration purposes, but the next logical step
is to add this kind of stuff so you can get a full implementation one
can start using.<br>
<br>
I looked at the Java version too only to realize it seems to be
similar, so i like your suggestion :)<br>

Subject: Re: [OpenID] ANN: OpenID4Java 0.9.4 - OpenID draft 12 and AX
draft 7 support<br>
<br>
I had the chance to browse the API a little bit and OpenID4Java looks
extremely promising, specially since it really seems to be up2date
including the various extensions. Hadn't any time to install and do
some coding, which leads me actually to make a suggestion, which some
community member could pick up perhaps:<br>
<br>
How about providing a complete client and server implementation with
all the whistle and bells which could be configured in a config or from
DB? I could imagine that once something installable would be available,
it actually would be used much more (including sql scripts etc). I
could also imagine, to provide some hooks for popular forums and blogs,
i.e. redirect authentication to the OpenID4Java client and post the
result back...<br>
<br>
Specially the availability of extensions like Attribute Exchange could
improve the (security) status of OpenID further, meaning that actual
implementations are using it.<br>

<pre>Hello everyone!
I am pleased to announce the release of a new version of the
OpenID4Java library - v0.9.4. It now supports the following
specifications:
OpenID Authentication 2.0, draft 12
OpenID Authentication 1.1 (in compatibility mode)
OpenID Attribute Exchange 1.0, draft 7
OpenID Simple Registration 1.0 and 1.1
OpenID Provider Authentication Policy Extension 1.0, draft 1
OpenID Information Cards 1.0, draft 1
You can give it a try by downloading the package, or see it in action
as it powers the server-side of the recently released Sxipper 1.0.
