It doesn’t require Yahoo. You should be able to sign in with any OpenID provider, though some smaller ones might have bugs.

Look at http://apps.sourceforge.net/trac/sitedocs/wiki/OpenID%20feature%20coverage

We tested extensively with myOpenID though. If it’s not working, you should submit a support request for it.

OpenID on SourceForge would be really useful if it didn’t require a Yahoo account…or perhaps I’m misreading this page:

http://apps.sourceforge.net/trac/sitedocs/wiki/Yahoo OpenID support

I’m using myOpenID and for some reason, I’m unable to login to SourceForge with it.

salimma,

it is possible to link existing accounts with multiple OpenIDs using the new OpenID management page in the account options. (http://sourceforge.net/account/openid.php)

while we’ve considered offering OpenID Provider services, for now at least, we think our more valuable service is to provide a delegation URL for our OpenID users. once you have linked an OpenID to your sf.net account, you can use the above-mentioned OpenID management page to make any of your linked OpenIDs your delegate. this allows you to provide sf.net/users/ to other OpenID relying parties.

hope that helps.

Would it be possible to link one’s existing SF account with one (or more) OpenIDs? Also, the next logical step is to make an SF account to be an OpenID to be used on other sites as well.

I’m a package maintainer for the Fedora project, and it will be useful if I have bug reports and fixes I make on behalf of Fedora to be assigned to my Fedora OpenID, but I can still see an aggregated report from my main SF account.

Gavin,

the Zend_Service_Yadis proposal (http://framework.zend.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=20369) is currently under consideration by the Zend Framework team, and as soon as it’s approved for laboratory or incubator, we will work to get it into our implementation.

but we’re un-sure about specifically when this will happen.

I noticed in the OpenId FAQ when login in that you do not yet support I-names. Ialso note that you have submitted a bug report for this.

Is there any news on when this might be corrected?

How about if you implemented being an OpenID host or perhaps just some kind of relay, could project web sites be given connectivity to that?
