PHP OpenID consumer working! [was: PHP hackers wanted -- here's a seed]

[Phillip Pearson]

Finally - it works!

I've put everything together into an 'openid_consumer' PHP class, that
sort of mimics Net::OpenID::Consumer -- although I doubt implements
all the features - just the minimum required to get a login.

Here's a little guestbook script, like Mart's, to show it off:

	http://dev.myelin.co.nz/openid/guestbook.php

This will be open source sometime soon - when it's a little tidier :)

Note that it includes an LGPL sha1 library and Daiji Hirata's DSA
code, so the licensing might be a little weird, but probably
GPL-compatible.  The ASN parsing code is more *inspired* by dumpasn1
[which taught me what the ASN tags mean and how to decode lengths]
than a direct port, so dumpasn1's license probably doesn't matter.

Cheers,
Phil
