Google says it's OpenID 2.0

...if I understand their response correctly. Here's a snipplet of it, as quoted on openid.net:

"Once the XRDS file is live, end-users should be able to use the service by typing gmail.com in the OpenID field of any login box that supports OpenID 2.0, similar to how Yahoo users can type yahoo.com or their Yahoo E-mail address (In the meantime, if you feel really geeky, you can type https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id into an OpenID 2.0 login box)."

Note the "2.0". The thing that NeoSmart is quoting says "This is a departure from the process outlined in OpenID 1.0."
