With support for OpenID coming soon in Drupal 6 I just wanted to make sure that the developers knew about this bounty that Drupal might be able to get. Will the support be of the correct version of the standard?
In an effort to raise the awareness and increase adoption of OpenID, we are proud to announce the OpenID Code Bounty.
US$5,000 will be donated to the first ten software projects that meet the requirements of the bounty program. Currently the OpenID Code Bounty is being sponsored by VeriSign, JanRain, Four Kitchen Studios, Cordance, ooTao, Zooomr, claimID, ZP3, International Webmasters Association, NetMesh, SXIP, Opinity, Six Apart and AmSoft.
Bounty Eligibility*
We are hoping that in addition to the following requirements we will have the open source community nominate projects that they would like to see included in the bounty. To participate in the bounty, you must:
* Distribute under an OSI-approved license.
* Have at least 200,000 public internet users and 5,000 downloads per month.
* Implement OpenID 2.0 support as a Relying Party (RP) or Identity Provider (IdP).
* Make enabling OpenID no more difficult than changing one configuration setting (there can be more optional configuration settings).
* Distribute the implementation as part of the project's core (it cannot be an additional download or patch).
