[OpenID] This is not a company election (WAS: Re: Today is the beginning of the VOTING PERIOD, be ready to make the best choice.)

I'm sorry, but I just feel that I need to say something here...

This is not an election of companies to the board, it is an election  
of individuals.  Brian Kissel running as an individual for a board  
seat is one thing, and something that I would support, but time and  
time again I see indications that Brian is actually running for a  
board seat for his company JanRain and that does not sit well with me.
