It seems that somewhere between the Google Blogger OP and the OpenID Blog, my comment got "eaten" (this is attempt #2) :) You are correct. AOL is working on the 2.0 upgrade. I speak briefly about this in this <a href="http://dev.aol.com/node/1867" rel="nofollow">post</a> on MapQuest's OpenID RP support on the <a href="http://dev.aol.com" rel="nofollow">AOL Developer Network</a> blog.

According to George Fletcher, AOL definitely wants to support Yahoo and Google and is working on the 2.0 upgrade.

OP and the Google OP only support OpenID 2.0 Relying Parties, they don't work with the <a href="http://www.mapquest.com" rel="nofollow">MapQuest</a> deployment. This is of course temporary as we work on the 2.0 implementation. I mention this briefly, though in relation to SREG 1.0 support, in this <a href="http://dev.aol.com/node/1866" rel="nofollow">post</a> on the AOL Developer Network.

OpenID Provider</a>? Really? The list of supported OpenID providers seems somewhat random anyway. Looks like it is only supporting OpenID 1.0 providers? In any event, I have no doubt it will certainly improve with time. This is great to see AOL's level of commitment to OpenID as a protocol, as well as the concept of externalized identity. wow, so mapquest supports idproxy.net, but not the actual Yahoo!
