It's a good idea, David. The only question is cost. If a sponsor/donor is
willing to pick up the cost of the release (typically $500-$1K for domestic;
double that for international), I'm for it. Otherwise I'd put it up on the
OpenID.net site and do the blogging campaign.

Personally, I'd think if we win it, that might be worth a press  
release, but so far, it's really a giant grab bag of "anything" that  
has the same "status".
Blogging with a "vote" button might be a good idea, though.
