So, if I understand correctly there is no way for consumer to detect which version - 1.0 or 1.1 is used in HTML delegation case, because delegation tags are the same, i.e.<br>
<p><link rel="openid.server"
href="<a href="http://www.livejournal.com/openid/server.bml">http://www.livejournal.com/openid/server.bml</a>"><br><link rel="openid.delegate"
href="<a href="http://exampleuser.livejournal.com/">http://exampleuser.livejournal.com/</a>">
</p> so in my case Drupal consumer decides that either 1.0 or 1.1 version of specification is used and makes a request to OpenID server with
openid.ns
set to either "<a href="http://openid.net/signon/1.1">http://openid.net/signon/1.1</a>" or
"<a href="http://openid.net/signon/1.0">http://openid.net/signon/1.0</a>". But 1.1 OpenID server doesn't know anything about openid.ns, because it was added only in 2.0 Therefore server fails to authenticate and this should be considered a bug in consumer, which should not send openid.ns at all. If everything above is right then where is the logic and what are the reasons for consumer to send openid.ns="<a href="http://openid.net/signon/1.1">http://openid.net/signon/1.1</a>" at all?<br>

<div>Anatoly,</div>

<div>1.0 was an informal specification, so it was prone to ambiguities. 1.1 solved the majority of these problems, as it is clearer which aspects of the specification are optional and mandatory.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As far as I know, OpenID 1.1 is what all consumers should be supporting at this point.</div>

We need some arguments to switch preferable backwards compatibility scheme from 1.0 to 1.1 in Drupal. Looks like there is no way to detect which version of these two is used in case of HTML delegation and this causes problems between Drupal 5 and Blogger, because Drupal chooses 1.0 in this case.<br>
