Documenting and comparing the choices you have to get OpenID working in a Django app...

  • OpenID 2 is used by some providers, including Yahoo
  • Simple Registration Extension allows you to get name, email, etc. if the OpenID server sends it
  • Django auth/users integration means the OpenID is associated with a django user, so when they log in with OpenID they get a user account
