Great input Johannes, yes, that can and should be part of our game plan as I and others discussed recently at the OpenID Summit at Yahoo and at IIW.   Thanks for reminding us all.  I will post my PPT from the OpenID Summit and IIW that specifically addresses this goal on SlideShare and provide a pointer to it to the list.

Cheers,

Brian

This is useful. Could this be augmented by a similar survey of the membership?

I'm surprised that "define missing components to be on feature parity with FB Connect" does not even show up on the list. Whether or not that should be a goal is a different question, but the question should be asked?

Hello All,

At Internet Identity World there were several discussions about priorities for the OpenID Foundation for 2010.  Joseph Smarr led a discussion about "What Relying Parties Want."  David Recordon and Dick Hardt led a discussion about priorities for updates to the OpenID platform (OpenID.NEXT).  Eric Sachs summarized what he had heard various constituencies voice as needs and objectives along with public commitments that individuals and/or organizations had made to improve the benefits, deployment, and usage of OpenID.  All that became input for a survey of the board members to highlight the areas we might want to focus on in 2010.  These survey results along with the precursor information will factor into the strategic, operating, and financial plans that Don Thibeau, our Executive Director, will be developing over the coming month to share with the newly constituted board after the elections occurring in a couple of weeks.

If you think there are other high level priorities that the board and foundation should be focusing on in 2010, please respond to this list or to Don or to any of the board members.  Thanks in advance for your input and feedback.
