django-authopenid - Google Code
link posted 9:29 p.m., Sunday 4 May, 2008. This up and coming Django application provides a new user-authentication interface built on top of the Django 'auth' module and Simon Willison's Django OpenID Consumer application.
It allows users to sign up with either OpenID or a traditional username/password, and use them interchangeably. I've started integrating it with DjangoSites to allow users to get away without having yet another username & password to remember. Whilst I haven't made it live yet, it's basically been a case of install & tweak templates. Very easy, and it works on top of the existing userbase which is a win-win situation.
This code certainly trumps my early OpenID integration - much more stable and it's simpler to piece together.
Beautiful work by Benoit Chesneau.

DjangoSites Gets OpenID Support
blog post posted 5:44 p.m., Thursday 17 April, 2008. One of the coolest things to happen to the Internet in the past few years is OpenID, the decentralised system that allows you to use a single 'login' mechanism across multiple websites. OpenID support in Django is coming of age, and I've just implemented it at DjangoSites.

flow|state: OpenID: Great idea, bewildering consumer experience
link posted 11:20 p.m., Wednesday 22 August, 2007. A great article on some shortcomings of OpenID from the perspective of a new user. Some of these can be resolved by site owners ('consumers' in OpenId-ese), others require a bit of input from the OpenID foundation. Some great observations, generally geared towards making life easier for new users.

blog post posted 7:30 a.m., Monday 20 August, 2007. OpenID is a de-centralised authentication system that is making a splash in a big way. In this post I give an overview of what OpenID is, and how I'm going about integrating it with Django's user-management / authentication system.
