I think you've got the history a bit wrong here...
The original SXIP 1.0 protocol still had massively centralized trust. You were required to trust a single centralized Rootsite, controlled by Sxip, that was used for introduction protocols, and delegation of authority.
The subsequent SXIP 2.0 protocol adandoned centralization, and looked much more like openid. It was, however, developed after openid was released.
All of these protocol are based upon the same fundamentals, so they have common characteristics, but I think its a gross mis-representation of the truth to say OpenId was based upon SXIP.
In reality, Sxip was quite resistant to the OpenId protocol for at least a year, until it was clear that it was going to win the marketshare battle.
