Oracle Identity Federation (OIF) now supports OpenID 2.0

This news is a long time coming, but none-the-less, very cool. With the most recent patch set, OIF now supports OpenID 2.0.

In addition, OIF now supports “custom actions” by which you can create custom site specific operations that are executed during federated authentication at the service provider (consumer) and identity provider (producer).
