I too would like to continue working on the PIP. I'm also interested in actually looking at starting a new Ruby on Rails OpenID Provider code base. I think we've learned a lot of lessons since the PIP was originally written as well as Rails as a technology has advanced quite a bit in the past year. So if nothing else, as a personal project I've started this and would love to collaborate with people here on it once I get enough code written that it is worth sharing.

I was, before all this came up, working on several extensions; now I've postponed them in favor of code that doesn't look like it'll get pitched if a vote goes the wrong way. That said, I'm not a committer, so I don't get a vote. ---Brendan O'Connor William A.
