Thought so, but doesn't work.

Well, it actually works great for me, except that once I associated one OpenID 
I can't associate another one ;-)

It works fine on community.kde.org, as I used my gmail there from day one. 
Liking it - just click on 'log in with openID', click 'Gmail', click 'Login' 
and it's done. I think the 'Login' step could be skipped, though ;-)
