Problem with forum login when using Open ID on Openstreetmap
I want to let you guys know about a authentication bug I just noticed with this forum and when using Open ID on OSM.
I just created an account with Openstreetmap (with username: jensendarren) using Open ID. However, I was unable to log into this forum and so had to create a second account (jensendarren1) so that I could log into the forum.
I would really prefer to be able to use one account for both this forum and OSM when using Open ID otherwise, if this is not possible, I would then prefer to convert my account from using Open ID to using standard login.
Keep up the good work!

Re: Problem with forum login when using Open ID on Openstreetmap
The forum uses the OSM API to authenticate the user.
Does any of this help?
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenID

The API needs full HTTP authentication so perhaps you need to enter the password in your OpenID account?
