On http://projectconcordia.org/index.php/User:Homepw, I posted a couple 
of screen shots of succeeding and failing messages sent to mediawiki, 
attempting to logon to the concordia website. MyOpenID works. (Vidoop 
also works. openid.trustbearer.com even works, with its smartcard 
logon.) My OP at TrustBearer <mailto:OP at TrustBearer> does not (even tho its 
openids work on Plaxo and various other sites).
 
I notice that both vidoop and myopenid send open.identity fields in 
strict normal form. They do not send http://homepw.myopenid.com 
<x-excid://BC120000/uri:http://homepw.myopenid.com/> but 
http://homepw.myopenid.com/ (with trailing slash). Is Media Wiki fussier 
about such things than plaxo? I suspect not, as openid.trustbearer.com 
works on mediawiki even though it sends 
openid.identity=http%3A%2F%2Fopenid.trustbearer.com%2Fpeterw .
 
I notice that unlike myopenid, vidoop, and trustbearer , my 
OP at trustbearer <mailto:OP at trustbearer> is sending openid.pape signals..
Is Media Wiki fussy about such verifying such pape signals -- that it 
may not have requested?
 
I suppose the final question is: Could concordia's deployment of its RP 
be operating a whitelist of OPs?
