As you know Brian, you have my full consideration and support,

But I also share the point of view of Dick and David about your direct
relationship with JanRain/MyOpenID/RPX

Thanks

Brian: I think it behooves the community for you to clarify if you are
running as an individual representing your interest in OpenID, or if this is
motivated by being CEO of JanRain at this point in time. You will continue
to hold this community seat even if you leave JanRain. Is that the
commitment you are making?

Nat, Allen, Eran and Eric have also indicated a corporate affiliation. Would
the rest of you clarify?

Myself, I will continue to have an interest and represent the community
wether I work at Microsoft or not.

As some history, David, Scott and Martin have all continued to represent the
community and sit on the board even though their employer changed.

I'm sorry, but I just feel that I need to say something here...

This is not an election of companies to the board, it is an election of
individuals.  Brian Kissel running as an individual for a board seat is one
thing, and something that I would support, but time and time again I see
indications that Brian is actually running for a board seat for his company
JanRain and that does not sit well with me.

Dear candidate.

Please identify your main blogsite’s main pagesas a URL, to this
general at openid.net list. Please authorize me to report on whether your blog
site supports delivery of an authenticated comment, using openid (1 or 2). I
will test it (using myopenid) and report back.

Snorri’s blog, for example, appears to feature 3 vendor-specific ways  of
logging in to leave him a comment on his blogsite. None of them are
(obviously) OpenID powered. It may actually be possible to use an openid,
but I could not see how (e.g. an OpenID logo).

It’s time for all candidates to act, and be seen clearly to adopt openid. I
will not counsel the member I advise to vote for a Candidate who (a)
operates a blogsite and (b) that site  does not actually prominently feature
openid commenting/signin.

If you have an argument against this position, be free to argue a defense on
your blogsite.

Dear OpenID Community and dear OIDF Members,

I am inviting you to read this post on my blog to remind you of the process
and importance of voting. Your vote is critical for the future of OpenID in
2009.http://snorrigiorgetti.com/blog/2008/12/openid-foundation---the-new-boa
rd-election-is-on.html

Please remember that you can take advantage of the next two weeks to ask
questions to the Candidates, just as Eddy Nigg did.

Regards

-Snorri
