I just received an email from my OpenID provider, "myOpenID", saying that they drop OpenID service next February. I wonder what other OpenID providers are used by other python-dev fellows.

What are you using?. bugs.python.org admins could share some data? I agree than OpenID is (quite) dead, but I rather prefer OpenID to use user/pass. I have big hopes for Mozilla Persona, looking forward Python infrastructure support :). PS: I use "http://www.jcea.es/" as my OpenID identity, and I delegate the actual service to "myOpenID". I can switch delegation trivially.

I used to use myOpenID and became my own provider using poit[1]. These days I seldom use OpenID -- there are too few sites that allow full-featured login with OpenID. The future lies in OAuth 2.0.

       Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.
