Thanks for all the great stuff Eastmedia has been doing! I didn't know about the 'Bookmarks' sample app! I had it on the list to look at the same thing (aaa+openid) The problem of providing openid alongside uid/pwd and other authentication methods is one we'll hopefully cover. I installed bookmarks app and had trouble with login & the required username/email elements. Something about the 'require username/email unless openid' logic in the model wasn't working for some reason. Both the code and the user interface for supporting multiple authentication methods is tricky. Thanks again, Matt! Bernie Hi Matt!

What approach did you take for integrating it? Did you use (or get a chance to look at) the Rails plugin we built with VeriSign (which is now part of the Apache Heraldry project) or did you make one from scratch? We built the OpenID server and profile management app too (which runs http://pip.verisignlabs.com), which is intended to be a real production app as well as a reference implementation for developers to think about cool services to offer. We also have a sample 'Bookmarks' app that shows how to integrate the Rails plugin with a traditional login system (using acts_as_authenticated). There also is a modification of it for use with restful_authentication). We have more info at http://identity.eastmedia.com Thanks for helping get the word out. Look forward to seeing the screencast.

Junebug is built on wacky whys camping framework, not Rails. By the way, I’ve definitely focused on Rails (rather than just “adding OpenID to your Ruby web app”) — so Junebug is out as a choice.

This will be covered and shown in-use in the screencast!

I'm leaning towards using Mephisto as the example, and it will run into your first area: needing to have a form which adds more information to the user profile than what OpenID can provide. I also hope to cover the OpenID SRE (Simple Registration Extension). This would include getting email and login (timezone probably won't be needed) ... and, probably more interestingly, handling when the OpenID provider doesn't support SRE, or the user hasn't pre-authorized the release of that info. So assuming ruby-openid has SRE support (which I haven't verified yet), I'm hoping to cover everything you're asking about. Thanks! Great feedback.

Some things I would like to see: Working with a webapp in which a user account needs to be created. How to accept more information after the ID has been validated, but not end up with partially created user accounts. Along with that: How to access the information that OpenID allows to be passed back to the app (email, timezone, etc) Looking forward to the screencast. Some things I would like to see:
