Google OpenId Federated Login?

[AdamD]

Gavin McQuillan (gavin.mcquillan on GMail) asks:
I notice that there's no option to login with one's Google Account for
OSB. Is there any movement to implement this? Are there any
philosophical or technical blockages that prevent us from proceeding?
Is any help needed? I'd be interested in making this happen. Please
let me know.

Gavin,

You can use your Google account on Blogspot(? The blog site Google
bought), which you can in turn use on the OSBridge site. Could be more
elegant, but it works...

Thanks.

I got a separate response that seems to work, too:

Just use a custom OpenID URL and put this into it:

http://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id


That's easy enough.

Cheers,
-Gavin
