Hi all,

After finally getting OpenID 2 support worked out, I've now put up the Haskellers.com website[1].

For me at least, when I try to use my wordpress.com OpenID, I get this message:

"Do you want to pass your http://ivanmiljenovic.wordpress.com/ identity to ?"

Should that be saying haskellers.com or something there?

It's fixed now. It's because wordpress is not following the recommendations in the OpenID 1.1 spec[1]. In particular, if trust_root is missing, the OP should default the value to return_to, which Wordpress is not doing. Easy enough to fix: simply send trust_root along with return_to. Complete side note: it's kind of funny that OpenID let's you specify some completely arbitrary string to appear in the resulting webpage[2].
