If you want something done... ;)
Here's the post:
http://openid.net/2008/12/16/openid-foundation-board-of-director-election-now-open/
I've linked to the pages that Google gave me for your names. If you have a
link or blog you'd also like linked up, please let me know.
And yes, the list is marked up in hCard.
