OK. I quickly rewinded the threads and found questions in following posts:

- 10/19/08 11:51 PM Ingo
- 10/20/08  4:15 PM Oliver
- 10/23/08 12:47 PM Martin Kutschker

Additionnaly I found a slightly modified patch (with distinction of the 
OpenID library itself and Dmitry's code) on 20 and 22 October by Michael 
and Oliver.

I'm sure Dmitry will take time to answer those questions, give his 
opinion and then, if he does not want to spend more time on this yet, 
let other (like me) fine tuning patches from Michael et Oliver.

Someone from core will then be able to (eventually!) commit it (I hope 
someone will do this if Dmitry does not as the "final" patch will 
generate a few more posts I guess.

He said that he does not want to work on the *first* release of the 
OpenID sysext anymore, not that he isn't willing to work on it anymore. 
I'm confident we will shortly see it in trunk.

Cheers and I wish you all a great new week!
