    • Affects Version/s: 1.5
    • Component/s: OpenID

      The OpenID 2.0 specs state that:

      A LINK element MUST be included with attributes "rel" set to "openid2.provider" and "href" set to an OP Endpoint URL
      A LINK element MAY be included with attributes "rel" set to "openid2.local_id" and "href" set to the end user's OP-Local Identifier

      Currently we set openid.server and openid.delegate links (OpenID 1.1).

      We should follow the spec's recommendations and allow for backward compatibility:

      A Relying Party MAY encounter a Claimed Identifier which uses HTML-Based Discovery to advertise both version 1.1 and 2.0 Providers.
