OpenID is a decentralized authentication protocol for web applications. OpenID users need share credentials with only one OpenID provider, and not every forum and network they log on to. This leads to a safer and more convenient Web. http://openid.net/

This morning there was a message in my inbox from my DNS registrar, inviting me to click through for a "special message" from them. An animation loaded with elaborately rendered red roses and candlelight, and wishes for a happy valentines day written out in a flowing font. Well, I guess we could have done that too. But we don't really know that much about this Saint Valentine character. Do we really need to send out cards stamped with symbolic hearts? Or would it in fact be better to publish some bug fixes? For all I know, Saint Valentine's day job is working as a sysadmin. Perhaps he even runs an OpenID server for his company's domain. So today we're releasing version 1.0.4 of our Python OpenID library. This is a maintenance release which includes in openid.consumer: * added logging to more error cases. * fixed to appropriately return SETUP_NEEDED from completeAuth(). * fixed some occurrences of unnecessarily falling back to dumb mode. in openid.server: * corrections to the server's replay attack prevention in dumb mode. * made more careful checking of trust_root. and in openid.store, used by both parties: * removal of several arbitrary field limits in the SQL stores. (This will effect newly created stores only; old ones will continue operating with their existing schema.)
We are proud to announce the release of version 1.0 of the Python OpenID library. This package provides simple interfaces to support both OpenID consumers and servers.
