Identity Commons Steward from OpenID

[Johannes Ernst]

If you look at
     http://wiki.idcommons.net/moin.cgi/OpenIdCharter
it defines the initial members of the working group, which are the  
people that are constituting themselves as the OpenID Working Group  
in the Identity Commons, and thus the ones that should be voting.

This does not mean at all that this will be the entire membership of  
the OpenID Working Group in the Identity Commons, only that these are  
the ones that initiated being also chartered within Identity Commons.  
(please speak up if you want to be a member as well -- preferably  
after the vote to make things simpler organizationally ...;-)) Note  
that the relationships of the OpenID Working Group in the Identity  
Commons, Apache Heraldry, the OpenID community on this list and  
others, and a potential trade organization for OpenID, are still in  
flux, and so it is unclear what exactly the OpenID Working Group in  
the Identity Commons actually means -- what we are united in,  
however, is the desire to have a place at the table in the  
reconstituted Identity Commons, and thus we need to get this vote  
done within the next 24 hours or so ...

The deadline is set by the Identity Commons, see

000710.html
