[OpenID board] OpenID Update: Orientation Briefing Feedback

Well, I guess I didn't wait ;-)  As I said on the call yesterday, I think Daniel's idea is a good one.  We added the technical and international liaison roles to ensure we had sufficient breadth of perspective at the executive committee working level, and I think it served us well in 2009.  Given that we really want to continue to drive adoption and usage in 2010, having a representative on the EC that brings the "voice of the customer" is a good thing.  We have some new board members that bring that viewpoint and it would be great to make the most of this in the coming year.

Cheers,

Brian

OIDF Board Members
Yesterday the new members of the OpenID Board of Directors received an orientation briefing on many of the plans and priorities we will discuss on our first meeting Jan 20th. While not an official meeting, the agenda previewed some of key issues the new board will consider as well as info for our budget development and committee process for 2010.  The relevant content from the orientation briefing will be updated and included as part of the background material for the teleconference on the 20th.

For your information:
One of the suggestions that came out of that discussion was a suggestion from Daniel Jacobson that the views of relying parties can be best represented by the addition of a liaison on the executive committee.  It was suggested that this new role be similar to that of the international and technical community liaison positions. These "non officer" positions are part of the executive committee by virtue of board convention established last year rather than OIDF by laws.

Board Action Item:
Please let me know if you are unable to make the teleconference on the 20th and, if desired, to whom you designate as your proxy.
