<p class=MsoNormal>It would seem that renaming Marketing to Adoption might be a

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>I think that the &quot;Marketing&quot; committee was
ill-defined and had weak support &#8212; especially from a branding perspective where

<p class=MsoNormal>As such, I can see how the first priority should be
Adoption, which could include pushing for the test suite and improving the

<p class=MsoNormal>Otherwise, I agree with focusing on committees, but I also
think that we need to come up with a better approach to encourage progress
within the committees, and for them to report their progress on the <a

think we've done a poor job communicating with the outside world what is going

&gt; 2010 is the year where we must work on developing OpenID as a product
beyond<br>
&gt; just a technology. &nbsp;That said, I don't think that extending the
Executive<br>
&gt; Committee with another appointed&nbsp;liaison&nbsp;role is the correct
approach.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; This year we must also push work out from the Board into Committees.
&nbsp;This<br>
&gt; both broadens the pool of people who can directly become involved and
forces<br>
&gt; us as an organization to increase the value for non-sustaining members.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I believe that the Executive Committee should be chartered to either:<br>
&gt; 1) remain small (no more than five) and perform the execution work not
done<br>
&gt; in the Committees themselves, or<br>
&gt; 2) be made up of the Officers (president, vice president, secretary,<br>
&gt; and&nbsp;treasurer) and the chair of each Committee to focus on tackling<br>
&gt; execution issues&nbsp;across&nbsp;the organization as a whole.<br>

&gt; Subject: [OpenID board] OpenID Update: Orientation Briefing Feedback<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; OIDF Board Members<br>
&gt; Yesterday the new members of the OpenID Board of Directors received an<br>
&gt; orientation briefing on many of the plans and priorities we will discuss
on<br>
&gt; our first meeting Jan 20th. While not an official meeting, the agenda<br>
&gt; previewed some of key issues the new board will consider as well as info
for<br>
&gt; our budget development and committee process for 2010. &nbsp;The relevant
content<br>
&gt; from the orientation briefing will be updated and included as part of the<br>
&gt; background material for the teleconference on the 20th.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; For your information:<br>
&gt; One of the suggestions that came out of that discussion was a suggestion<br>
&gt; from Daniel Jacobson that the views of relying parties can be best<br>
&gt; represented by the addition of a liaison on the executive committee.&nbsp;
It was<br>
&gt; suggested that this new role be similar to that of the international and<br>
&gt; technical community liaison positions. These &#8220;non officer&#8221; positions are<br>
&gt; part of the executive committee by virtue of board convention established<br>
&gt; last year rather than OIDF by laws.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Board Action Item:<br>
&gt; Please let me know if you are unable to make the teleconference on the
20th<br>
&gt; and, if desired, to whom you designate as your proxy.<br>
