I think last year we mostly had the problem of finding a mentor for it.

Subtopics are something I had suppressed ... Still not too optimistic about their feasibility.

That sounds like a good idea.

We have an OpenID 2.0 library that's supposed to be working. It "only" needs to be integrated.

One of the goals of that project was to allow Geeklog to become an OpenID provider, i.e. allow you to log into other sites with the login from your Geeklog site. Isn't there something similar in OAuth? If so, maybe that could be combined?
