Yes, I'm well aware of OpenID with Django. And I also notice that the checked answer is over 1.5 years old - which is a lifetime on the internet. :) Not to mention that StackOverflow is now an OpenID provider, and that's gotta be a game-changer.

So what are the current recommended options for providing OpenID with Django?

  • According to [Questions with good but out-of-date answers](http://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/73953/questions-with-once-good-answers-that-are-now-out-of-date-and-need-updates), it's not unreasonable to re-ask questions that are dated. If I'm wrong, oh well... not like I was using the karma for anything. :) – John C Jun 08 '11 at 21:51
  • I'm using https://launchpad.net/django-openid-auth (from the checked answer) on some projects, and it works good. Also, seem to be more or less actively maintained. – Anton Strogonoff Jun 08 '11 at 22:28
  • @Anton, I guess that would be the not-dead version of `django-openid-auth`, then. :) Do you know if it works with StackOverflow's implementation of OpenID? – John C Jun 08 '11 at 22:34
  • That I can't answer. Works OK with Google's, but I don't know if their implementation is similar. – Anton Strogonoff Jun 08 '11 at 23:11

I had the same problem about 3 months ago (not exactly current but...) and found Django-SocialRegistration to be the best solution after many failed attempts. For me facebook authentication was also important, which social registration supports well.
