Thanks for the great overview Vaibhav. One area you didn’t cover was how websites can become OpenID-enabled. There are good open source libraries at http://www.openidenabled.com/ and http://wiki.openid.net/Libraries

Additionally, there are tutorials available at http://openid.net/developers/

Finally, there are a range of hosted solutions available at http://www.rpxnow.com

A couple of cautionary points. Currently, Google is testing their OpenID infrastructure. During this testing period, they support only pre-registered RPs. Furthermore, they are proposing a non-standard UI, which in my opinion goes against the principles of OpenID. For these reasons, we are not participating in their trials. The bottom line is not all sites can accept GMail as OpenID.

The second point is that OpenID does not obviate the need to register in new sites. It only simplifies authentication. It is to be expected that RPs will require registration. To wit credit card information may not be provided by an OP but may be required by an RP.
