Les Hazlewood commented on SHIRO-21:
------------------------------------

Cool - thanks Kalle.

I looked into both originally but decided against them primarily because of 
community size and adoption.  Both jopenid and dyuproject only have a single 
committer.  OpenId4Java on the other hand has 14 with a high level of activity 
(I think Google backs it - not sure).  Granted, this doesn't mean that it is 
inherently 'better', just that my odds of finding additional helpful resources 
were probably higher.  That and I used the Grails Nimble plugin to look at some 
ideas and it was based on OpenId4Java for what it's worth.

If we decide that my cursory implementation with OpenId4Java isn't sufficient 
(for whatever reason), I'm totally happy with potentially supporting something 
else.  There is only one maven dependency for OpenId4Java (for the 
consumer/relying party side), but I don't know how many .jars that will 
translate to.  

I'm about 80% done though, so maybe we will able to have more than one 
depending on users' preferences.
