I've been trying to get the email address requested from Google's openid.

However the implementation of django_authopenid included with Askbot uses the SREG system for requesting extensions like email and nickname.

I hacked together a solution based on this person's blog http://arnab.org/blog/getting-django-auth-openid-work-google-accounts (the blog excludes the code you need to actually use the email and nickname)

But, my hacked version isn't good enough for Askbot. The official django_authopenid now requests the email and nickname correctly, so using the latest official django_authopenid upgrading to that would be a the best solution.
