Identity Commons Steward from OpenID

Per draft charter
     http://wiki.idcommons.net/moin.cgi/OpenIdCharter
and the Identity Commons deadline for initial working group formation  
by this Friday night,

I'd like to:
1) move to adopt the charter as written at the URL above
2) nominate David Recordon as the OpenID working group representative  
to the Identity Commons Stewards Council.

I realize this is a bit late, but in our defense, I think neither of  
the points above will turn out to be particularly controversial, and  
we DO have the objective of becoming a founding working group of the  
reconstituted Identity Commons, don't we? along the many other  
founding working groups ... raising the flag that OpenID is here and  
real. If we need to re-constitute, we can do this Saturday morning if  
need to be, but for right now, let's just make sure we get the table  
stakes in place for being a founding WG of IDC2 (hope people agree on  
this).

We don't have a voting process either, as it turns out, so I propose  
that
  1. you vote +1 or -1 SEPARATELY on each of the above motions, AND  
on this voting procedure, which I'll call "motion 3" (in addition to  
the above two motions)
  2. that if anybody produces only one vote instead of one vote for  
the three motions separately, the same vote is applied to all three
  3. that any motion passes if it has at least 2/3 of the votes as  
+1, AND it has more +1 votes than any "competing" motion.
  4. you can of course make alternate motions -- call them #4 and  
such -- but keep in mind we have very little time.

Obviously, success for motions 1 and 2 depend on the successful vote  
for this voting procedure (motion 3)

Given that I'm making these motions, I'll of course vote +1 on all  
three.
