Hello Maciej.

I am evaluating the library by creating sample sites using openid
from scratch. At the moment I am working with provider and trying
to do it maximally close to real life needs .

The API is quite convenient and I have only minor notes. I have not
finished with evaluating yet, so I'll provide the notes little bit
later.

Best regards,
-Anton
