OpenID Seems to Be Breaking - Updated
OpenID comment registartion seems to be breaking for some reason. I’ve tried running tests with my OpenID and I am getting errors about an “Could not discover an OpenID identity server endpoint” for the URL. If you are using OpenID to comment, let me know if it works for you or not.

New Look
