achieved many of its core goals and deliverables that it established for last
year. That included both “plumbing” issues to get the
foundation on a sound organization and legal footing, as well as RP
adoption. International participation remains a work in progress.
There was some turnover in individual memberships, but with a net gain in
membership.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'>During 2009
we tackled a number of things that took more resources than expected, including
updating the bylaws and IPR process, doing a non-profit status filing,
trademark due diligence, and web site work. Furthermore, the successful
US government initiative consumed substantial resources not originally budged
for. (The government initiative also resulted in new resources coming to
the foundation.)<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'>The
foundation is focused on things that only the foundation can do.
Priorities are: address “product concerns”, build adoption
momentum, update website content and functionality, update membership
structure, improve marketing, support international adoption, promote
education, leverage community assets, evolve foundation (grow community and
corporate leadership, empower committees, ensure firm financial footing via an
updated membership structure).<o:p></o:p></p>

occurred about the high-level goals of the organization. We agreed that
we now are on a firm enough footing to have the long-term goals
discussion. Dick made the point that unless there is clear ownership for
each priority that they’re unlikely to happen. Don will get
back to us with a revised 2010 plan including these goals.<o:p></o:p></p>

continue to operate using a “start-up” approach. Our overall
budget this year is approximately $550,000. We will not make capital
investments or take on debt. We will operate with a balanced
budget. We will continue to leverage community resources wherever
possible (for instance, by holding sponsored summits, such as those recently
sponsored by Sears, Google, and Microsoft).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt'>Dick gave a
presentation for the technology committee. The committee set a theme of
“OpenID v.Next”. This theme was chosen because OpenID as it
exists isn’t meeting many constituents’ needs, motivating the need
to evolve OpenID so that it can meet a broader set of needs. There will
be presentations about problems and solutions at this week’s summit,
leading to working groups. The end goal is evolving the OpenID product so
that it meets a broader set of needs.<o:p></o:p></p>
