Issue #3892 has been updated by Igal Koshevoy.

Status changed from Accepted to Needs design decision
Assigned to changed from Igal Koshevoy to Michael DeHaan

Paul: Thank you for the honest feedback. I've gotten some more like this 
elsewhere too.

Michael (Product Manager): People keep saying they want OpenID and so would I, 
because it's easy to use and will improve Forge adoption. Unfortunately, making 
it possible for people to login via OpenID or password will require 1-2 days of 
work. If you want to do this, how do you want to prioritize and schedule this 
work?

The work involved is:
1. Tear out the existing "Devise" authentication system, because no one's been 
able to figure out how to add OpenID to it -- and a number of people have tried 
over the last 6 months.
2. Add a new authentication system that supports the ability to login using 
either a password or OpenID, either using "Authlogic" or 
"restful-authentication".
3. Convert all the code and data to support the new system, so that people with 
existing accounts and passwords can still login.
