The Google Code blog gives some more detail: "As is based on an internet standard, we plan to use it in the future with other e-mail providers that add support for this usage of OpenID and related standards like OAuth, such as in the Microsoft Live identity APIs." Google is currently only offering OpenID logins for Yahoo users, the company says. So there's no poaching happening here, just an open door policy on Yahoo's end, and the implementation of one of Yahoo's APIs on Google's end. The same type of third-party login is possible using your Google account, since Google exposes the information necessary to make that happen in its own OpenID APIs.
