RussianQuestion
It used to be http://yahoo.com, but it is failing for me with DiscoveryFailure in python OpenID library (since today, I wasn't testing this earlier). Also this fails if you try to use the SO login with a yahoo button, so I am thinking it probably changed recently.
Solution
I noticed it was down a few hours ago. It isn't working for any RP I've tried... except for zoho.com
I viewed their source and saw they are using https://me.yahoo.com, which works.
Yahoo either made a mistake in a recent site change, or forgot to tell anyone (including themselves). http://openid.yahoo.com/ still says to use "yahoo.com" as your openid.
OTHER TIPS
The problem only occurs on some yahoo servers - look up IPs for yahoo.com, and during YADIS resolution, some will work, and some won't. So that's why it works in some places and not others.
Per Yahoo ( http://developer.yahoo.com/forum/OpenID-General-Discussion/http-www-yahoo-com-returns-404-depending-on-headers-/1329169111466-34212409-d649-4154-8dd6-a19e04a6d02d ), it seems their suggestion is to use https://me.yahoo.com/ instead
Is Openid url for Yahoo https://me.yahoo.com only. I thought it is http://me.yahoo.com/profile-name . profile-name is chosen by the user at the time of selection of his openid url.
