[OpenID] Q&A: Who gets to vote?

[Drummond Reed]

I'm late to this thread (this list has been hopping lately), but I too have
several times advocated to the OIDF board that individual membership fees be
dropped to no more than $20, and ideally zero if email list membership and
participation can be used as a qualification for membership.

 

In other words, there should be no financial barrier to being a full voting
member of the OIDF. The test should be actual involvement.

For those interested, I have recommended via the membership committee that
individual and student memberships be free of charge.

That said, the membership committee has not yet presented a proposal to the
board to change the existing policy.

Well, if the "Election committees" decide to allow people to join without
paying $100, I will be much more likely to seek a board seat.

Question: can employees of the corporate sponsors join the board? Is there
any restriction to avoid too many people from the same employer?
