I think it would be helpful to update the project page for OpenID so that people know:
1. What's going on with OpenID and Drupal
2. Can see the "current" issue queue for openid.module as a part of core
3. See additional modules that work with OpenID
How about some new text!
What is OpenID?
OpenID is a safe, faster, and easier way to log in to web sites. With OpenID users can join or login to your site using credentials from a number of reputable OpenID providers. To find out more visit http://openid.net/.
OpenID is now part of Drupal core
See http://drupal.org/node/152893 for the announcement.
If you are using Drupal 6 or later you can enable OpenID from the modules page.
Submitting issues
To submit issues for OpenID v6.x and later visit the issue queue for Drupal core's openid.module here.
Drupal 5 and earlier
Drupal 5 and earlier versions of OpenID are no longer actively supported. Upgrade your site to take advantage of OpenID in D6 and later versions.
Related OpenID Modules
These modules are separate projects created to support or extend OpenID. They are installed seperately and included here for reference only: YMMV.

Background
The 4.7-1.0 version was originally developed by JanRain to implement OpenID consumer support in Drupal using the JanRain PHP OpenID and Yadis libraries. The 4.7-2.x branch was developed by James Walker and Rowan Kerr to support OpenID 2.x, and include a server and a client component.
