Devtalk on DasBlog now supports OpenID

Recently Scott Hanselman added support for OpenID to http://www.hanselman.com/blog/ and I have been wanting this for some time.

Today I finally got around to getting the source to Dasblog (revision 823) available at Codeplex or SourceForge.net

Currently its the same revision, but DasBlog will move permanently to Codeplex, so go for the Codeplex checkins in the future.

I tried to build, but got a few errors, but figured out that there was an issue with renaming Utils to SiteUtilities, so i commented out the second definition of the "Utils" class in SiteUtilities.cs, and it compiled.

I merged the new version with my existing Dasblog, but running it gave me the following error:

Could not load type 'newtelligence.DasBlog.Web.Services.OpenIdHandler' from assembly 'newtelligence.DasBlog.Web.Services'."

on this line:

Line 159: <add verb="*" path="authenticate.ashx" type="newtelligence.DasBlog.Web.Services.OpenIdHandler, newtelligence.DasBlog.Web.Services"/>

So I removed it, and I would seem that OpenID now works for comments, but not for administrator login.

I haven't looked further into it yet, but it looks a little like there is something missing in the "newtelligence.Dasblog.Web.Services" project. I will dig a little deeper and see if I can figure it out.

But please help me test the OpenID support on the comments. If you don't have an OpenID then go get one.
