Glassfish and OpenID

Currently I am working on a solution to authenticate users with an OpenID in a JEE Application running on Glassfish. I need this Integration for a Workflow Application using the IX JEE Worklfow

After searching for java based OpenID Solutions for Web applications I come to the end that the JRS-196, Java Authentication Service Provider Interface for Containers is one of the most auspicious solutions for JEE and Glassfish. But its not easy in the moment to find a running modul on this technologie. There is a very important blog about the concepts behind JRS-196 from Ron Monzillo. And also there I started a discussion in the java.net forum about the best way of integration. I will update my results in this blog the next time.

Please note that I have started a project site to provide a platform for further discussion and development. You will also find souce code from the OpenID-JSR-196 Login Module and a wiki page on the project site:
