Hey people,

I have brought OpenID to Moztrap this week, the following is the test page for login:

http://vm12.documentfoundation.org/openid/login/

Login example:

  Google user:       https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id
  Yahoo user:         https://me.yahoo.com
  Wordpress user: $your_username.wordpress.com
  ....

More about openid can be found here:

  http://openid.net/get-an-openid/

As a rookie OpenID user, I tested it by myself for 3-4 hours 
(wasted much time by the depressing net speed). 

I will update the main login page to add openid support next weekend 
if no critical issue found.

Functions currently supported (testing required)
================================================

    * Based on EMAIL address, native login/Mozilla Persona/OpenID are all
      mapped to the same user in Moztrap now, so they should be seamlessly
      worked together. Those details as follows.

      - If you have a native registered moztrap user or ever used Mozilla
        Persona to login, and your openid provides an exact same EMAIL of such
        an account, the original user and openid user will be treated exactly
        identical.

        Actually you should feel nothing changed except inputting password is no
        longer needed :)

    * If you never register or login with Persona, you may simply directly use
      OpenID to login.

      - The new user should be assigned to a "tester" by default, so you should
        be able to run tests without any specail permission.

        As I known, you have the chance to keep everything private when
        providing OpenID, but at least a readable user name is preferred to
        provide in case people want to find you. Providing an email is highly
        appreciated as well.

        In the case when you don't provide a  name, an ugly user name like
        "openiduser1" "openiduser2" will be spontaneously assigned for your
         account :)

    * You should not meet any "CSRF failure" issues (I was concerning the
      openid module will happened to such an issue again).


Best wishes,
Yifan
