Difference between 1.0 and 1.1

Anatoly,

1.0 was an informal specification, so it was prone to ambiguities.
1.1solved the majority of these problems, as it is clearer which
aspects of the
specification are optional and mandatory.

As far as I know, OpenID 1.1 is what all consumers should be supporting at
this point.

Thanks,
