I've also just quick-searched the pages, but I can not find such a
requirement.
What I would not like is the requirement to "advertise" openID:
* Place an OpenID logo in the signon form (as on this site).
* Answer "What is OpenID?" (or link to an answer) near the signon form.
And there are some issues with openID afaik - I like the decentralized
idea, but if e.g. a spammer sets up an identity provider this can easily
be exploited.
