How do I use OpenID?
OpenID is an open, decentralized system for user-centric digital identity. It works on the concept that anyone can identify themselves on the Internet the same way websites do – with a URI (sometimes called a URL or web address, somewhat inaccurately). ODS supports the OpenID Authentication 1.1 and registration extension 1.0. ODS includes OpenID Server and client side implemented in the weblogs comments using AJAX. When posting a comment, a Web Site url is needed to be entered in order to be verified the authentication against a Server that supports OpenID. The implementation code is located in the openid.js and openid.sql files from the ODS package. To see how it works, perform the steps from Weblog example.
