Description

Any chance we could get a 6.x-dev release? I put off trying this for a good couple of months because of the lack of an official release. I finally did a CVS checkout a few weeks ago, expecting to find it fairly broken, and haven't had a problem with it - at least on one small hobby site and only using it with Drupal OpenID clients so far. I don't see any harm in getting a few more eyeballs on it, at least with the usual "not for production use" caveats.

Agreed. I've been using it for several months with very little issue.

Yup. We could really use a dev release, James. We will give it a lot of testing, as our biggest customer uses it quite extensively in D4.7, and we are migrating to D6 this fall.

Did someone tried to contact walkah directly? Usually it takes a couple of weeks before he responds. Maybe someone should volunteer as a co-maintainer?

I nominate you, Jax! It's possible that someone in the thread at http://groups.drupal.org/node/9742 contacted walkah but I think it's safe to say that nobody did. To that end, I just contacted him about this thread via his website.

Any progress with OpenID_Provider 6.x-dev release?

@IngusNeilands: I'm not aware of any new progress... I don't think nagging usually helps but you might want to try contacting walkah anyway.

I actually chatted with James (walkah) in IM about it and he said he would do it. Also pinged him via Twitter a bit later. I suspect he is just busy with life, like most people. The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Don't give up yet.
