Drupal 6 gets OpenID support - A big move for centralized authentication

I hate remembering logins to all the sites I use. What is worse is half the blogs out there try to get you to register just to post. My memory is already in scarce supply.

That is why I like OpenID. And I've blogged out it before and how boss-awesome it would be to have this implemented over the breadth of the internet.

Drupal, a very popular open source content management system, recently announced that it will be including OpenID version in the next major release of Drupal.

There are thousands upon thousands of Drupal sites out there, many of which are blogs and many of which are popular. The inclusion of OpenID support in the next release (v6.0) is the next step in a global internet-wide nonpartisan centralized authentication system.
