VS: Re: Webapp OpenID Login Filter

Or maybe even in 2.8, if there is an Apache-licensed version available. I agree, this is exciting stuff.

Jack - thanks for the excellent initiative. As the resident security  
guy for JSPWiki and a part-time member of the Identity Gang, I have  
been looking at OpenID for a while. It has some issues (notably a  
susceptibility to man-in-the middle attacks) but overall the benefits  
strongly outweigh the risks.

OpenID us very interesting for us. I will take a careful look at what  
you've done (likely in the next month or so); perhaps we can include  
this in JSPWiki 3.

Nice work. What version of OpenID does your library support, by the way?
