Friends,

I'd like a (not yet released) web app of mine to accept OpenID logins (I'd like to be a relying party). I have been looking around for OpenID consumer libraries and I found:

No.1 is helplessly unfinished and the author stated that their focus has moved elsewhere.

No.2 has had a critical bug open for a year and according to the list of libraries only supports version 1.

No.3 supports version 2 according to the same source but I can't get any reliable information about it. Additionally, the docs for Net::OpenID::Consumer talk about version 2 of the protocol, so it hints me that the list of libraries is out of date.

Do you know whether there is a reliable, maintained module that would allow me to implement an OpenID relying party? I'd want to enable users to enter their gmail addresses instead of URLs and if I understood it correctly, I need OpenID protocol v2.0 and Attribute Exchange in order to do that. Got any advice?

use strict; use warnings; print "Just Another Perl Hacker\n";

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
