Here is list of changes since September 18, 2007.

• Django updated to HEAD caused few minor issues that were fixed afterwards. Fixes in comments and persona form were required.
• Persona management was disabled and will stay disabled until we get full implementation done with full SREG support which currently stays disabled at the endpoint.
• Changelog (our Django blogging application) had a few updates and improvements of the functionality and the look and feel. URL to feed and feed icons were added to improve accessibility. New setting added to specify changelog's prefix URL.
• OpenID favicon is now being used.
• You can switch the look and feel of the site through your account settings.Currently white or black themes are available.
• Fancy design tweaks are now disabled for all IE browsers. We will continue in this trend so all IE browsers will always have limited design. If you want to see the site with all of its intended design features please use a browser that do not require endless and painful CSS hacking.
• Many endpoint improvements. XRDS now improved and contains openid:Delegate attribute. Checkid setup and immediate reimplemented. Security features added. Identity normalization added. Immediate handler improved and working as expected.
• Username now showed in the secondary menu which contains links to user's profile, etc. This was an accessibility improvement.

Few more important notes.

• Handpicks is a new section at our OpenID.co.nz blog. You may want to subscribe to it if you are interested in what's happening in OpenID world and OpenID in New Zealand.
• Changelog that you read at the moment is intended to inform only about changes at OpenID.net.nz.
• Please let us know about your experience with OpenID.net.nz is you use the site for delegation of your own URI as your OpenID.
• Fully functional persona management is currently task number one for us and should be released soon.

We (Encode Ltd) have been working hard in a last of weeks to get the new OpenID provider up and running for general public.

Site was released but was not open for public on September 7th, 2007 when it was used for presenting OpenID single sign-on technology at BarCampChristchurch.

We are releasing the site for general public two days after after completing last bits of common functionality.

There is few more features that we are working on at the moment. We will be releasing those as we go.
