The Bryght stuff is the "official" drupal code? We've had several
people report problems using MyOpenID.com with sites that use that
module. The module does not seem to even try to figure out whether a
request should be OpenID 1 or 2, and always sends a (broken) OpenID 2
request. It also does not support OpenID 1 delegation (at least when
there's an XRDS file present).

These kinds of issues are why I am disappointed every time that I hear
of *yet another* project implementing OpenID without using *some*
existing code. There are enough implementations out there.

I know that I should have been submitting bug reports for this stuff,
but it's hard enough to stay on top of our own bugs for our own
libraries and MyOpenID.com.
