Design, XRI support, RSS, ... September 18, 2007

I am glad to inform you about recent changes on OpenID.(co|net).nz site.

Design of the site is now finished. All forms, Changelog and last bits and pieces of unfinished design are done. We're quite happy with the design, however, we would like to kindly ask you if you think we could do a better job, for your feedback on the matter. In general any feedback will be much appreciated!

In Personas management we lowered requirements for Personas. So from now on only nick, full name and an email are required fields. We would like to thank Jim for his feedback on this.

RSS and Atom feeds were added, so you can subscribe to the changelog with your favorite feed reader and stay in touch with us.

XRI support is now part of our server endpoint, too! This raised few more issues with authentication to certain sites, however fixed issues with authentication to some other sites. We're working hard to finish and fix as much issues as we can and make our server working perfectly for you.

We would like to ask you in case you would experience any trouble with authentication to any OpenID enabled website with your Identity from us to let us know. Your feedback is appreciated and highly valuable for us!

Redesign and new functionality September 12, 2007

Here is a summary of changes we have done to both OpenID.net.nz and OpenID.co.nz sites since September 9th, 2007.

The look & feel of the sites is changed significantly. New theme is white instead of black. We made lots of changes to pretty much everything on the site to make it more accessible and usable for our users.

We intend to keep black theme an an optional theme for all registered Identities. Possibly even provide more themes in the future.

Identity page(s) located as a subdomains of the main site are simple and provide only minimal functionality. New menu was introduced which brings you either back to the main site or to Learn More page. Important thing to bear in mind is that you are logged in to the main OpenID.net.nz site only! Authentication is not provided and more importantly not needed neither for Identity pages nor OpenID.co.nz site.

New personas management is now available for everyone. You can add and edit as many personas you want to have.

You can also manage your account. This functionality will be expanded soon, though.

And the last thing is this changelog that we added to keep informing you about our progress.
