There is another project related to this concept that I've been following for a few years.
http://www.openidealapp.com/
More difficult to install but quite some thought has gone into it. It might serve a source of inspiration for the next features.

Just documented the issues as I try to set this up.

The installation instructions note problems installing tastytools and I did indeed not have it. The instructions talk about source you have downloaded but this does not seem to be covered earlier. I got it installed using this:

git clone https://github.com/juanique/django-tastytools.git
sudo pip install django-tastytools/

I am using Ubuntu so use sudo but as long as it runs with root it should install.

Url option to the admin allows it to be used in the password reset template in case phone/email are not options, but a help desk is.

Although Django 1.5 is no longer supported for security releases, it may be worth bumping requirements.txt from 1.5.1 to the last security release in the 1.5 series, which was 1.5.11 (assuming you can test that everything still works okay for that release).

(Moving to 1.6 or 1.7 would be best of course, but you'll probably hope for a PR there :-)

Add an info box to provide info to users about what they should use for their username. Use django template if statements to include other html template and default to not displaying if not present.

Logout currently redirects to the server root because there is no frontEndPath in redirect (next) in the controller.js.

In the installation guide it states there is a fork that allows it to run with no SMTP server. I wanted to just spin this up locally without an email server. I cannot find the fork or an alternative in the settings.

Is this supported and if so how?

Hi @robrant,

Good to see this project here as OSS!

As a small enhancement, in the INSTALL.md, you might want to note that the user should define a new SECRET_KEY in their local config file that overrides the one in settings.py, since that's in this public repository. (Or implement one of the alternative ways of defining the SECRET_KEY, e.g. using environment variables.)
