I’m using the one from DiSo SVN on my site :) http://diso.googlecode.com/svn/wordpress/wp-openid/trunk/

@Stephen Paul Weber » Actually, I ‘did’ try to install Wp-openID, but kept running into troubles. Admin page turned up blank, it would refuse to log me in using the openID … I went through the forums, and saw many people complaining about the same. I thought I’ll wait for a Wordpress 2.5 to try it again …

I've stayed with Feedburner because it gives me portability -- I never did and never will have to tell people to change their feed readers, even if I move again :)

Nice job on the wordpress move though :) Although it seems that by leaving Blogger you've lost OpenID commenting (hint, hint) ;)

@jenny » I'm not exactly moving. I'm just de-moving :P I am moving to all in-house solutions for my tracking and content management needs. There are enough plug-ins to help me do so, and I want things to remain native. I hate having to check multiple separate services to get data on my own blog, when they should all actually be coming to me.

Plus, I've found FeedBurner to be rather inaccurate when it comes to feed as well as blog stats. I have seen how Wordpress calculates those two, and it's good enough for me :)
