I found this just in the right time. Watched Chris demo-site to learn what's going down, looked very nice, no ascx, only fresh crisp xslt needed to handle login. I installed the package v 1.0 right away.
I did get an error installing the package, Input string was not in a correct format. at System.Convert.ToInt32 atClientArea.PackageActions.CA_InstallActions.Page_Load . But I compared my install with the demo site, nothing seemed to be missing.
Where are the macro's? Where are the ascx'es? Not needed. Just add some code to a template (there's a sample one) and you have a template with a login control. The package uses xsltResult, also from Conscia, to insert xslt without the need of a macro. To modify the control - just edit the xslt. Nice!
I pasted the code in a template of mine, and everything I tested so far runs perfectly.
Thanks very much Jonas! Good feedback really spurs folks on to release updates and more functionality.
In regards to the error - That stage of the install sets up the public access permissions on some of the pages. If there's an error, it's probably around the security setup.
I really mean to come back to this project and complete the roadmap I started, just got side tracked by other packages and having to work for a living!
On a side note - Check out the recent changes to the XSLTResult package as ClientArea uses an older version. The new version supports InlineXslt and more caching options.

Thank you Chris, two thumbs up!
