I would be happy to represent the OpenID Foundation on the next European
Conference call will be Thursday, 7 in January. 

On behalf of the current Board of Directors, I want to reflect the consensus
of support for the effort to extend the reach of OpenID within Europe and to
give Europe a voice within the OpenID Foundation.

I have been in DC for the last week, working with Gov agencies to prepare
them for Open Identity.

The NIH sponsored a workshop on Thursday where we publicly demonstrated the
first production RP connected to the NIH's openID enabled SSO.

The first application is a closed research application.   However people at
the conference used there Google and Yahoo openIDs to gain access.

We also demonstrated the openID selectors from MS and Higgins that were
shown at IIW.

I met with a number of agencies both inside and outside NIH who were
impressed at the real progress we have made.   They are now seeing this is
real and not just more talk.    We have another NIH RP of more general
interest who are now asking to go live ASAP in the new year.

The NIH SSO is a version of CA SiteMinder modified with Andrew Arnott's DNOA
library.   This has been in testing for a number of months and agencies
currently using the SSO for SAML and PKI can now elect to add openID and
information cards to the credentials they are willing to accept from the
SSO.

I want to commend the Board and Don Thibeau the foundations ED,  for putting
effort into the ICAM trust framework and making this possible.  I realize
there are competing priorities.

I know the pace of progress seems slow from the outside, but for government
work this is progressing with blinding speed.   

I just want  to let people know there is real progress being made with the
US Gov.


Regards
John Bradley

Congratulations John, this wouldn't have happened with you!  

It's great to see someone in the US Government deploying AL1 RP's in
production, compliant with the ICAM profiles.  This is just the tip of the
iceberg!

That's fantastic news! It's very energizing to see so many agencies  
not only interested in, but actually working on implementing user- 
centric ID solutions.

Mea Culpa!... what an unfortunate typo *sigh*  Of course I meant

No Problem Brett.  

Liberty and yourself have helped pave the road for all of us.

That is why we have organizations like the OIDF and Kantara.

No single one of us can do this on there own.

I am glad to be heading home to Santiago for the holidays today.

Thanks all.

Hello all!

At last years board election Snorri Giorgetti, who represented the 
OpenID Europe Foundation was elected to the OpenID board with a very 
large number of votes.

Sadly, due to various circumstances he was not able to fulfil this role 
and was removed from the board shortly before this election. This has 
left the OpenID Foundation without representation from Europe - and 
Europe with a broken OpenID community and uncertainty about the future 
direction and role of the OpenID Foundation Europe.

Fortunately more people from various European countries have stepped 
forward to offer their assistance in making Europe an active part of the 
OpenID community. Four people have nominated themselves for the 
election, and even more people have agreed to contribute to a core team 
working with the European candidate(s) that get elected.

This Thursday the group held its first phone conference. A general 
agreement on various issues was confirmed and it was decided to move 
forward as a group. We want to work as a community as part of the OIDF 
and not focusing on setting a legal entity like the OIDE was. Therefore 
the goals of the OIDF are leading in how we will contribute.

The next European Conference call will be Thursday, 7. January. Watch 
out for more details on the Openid-EU list. We are looking forward to 
extend the reach of OpenID within Europe and to give Europe a voice 
within the OpenID Foundation.

We urge you to consider each of the European candidates. We recognize, 
however, that the overall list of candidates includes a large number of 
other candidates with significant merits. Therefore the participants in 
the phone conference agreed to nominate Kick Willemse from Holland as 
our primary European candidate. So if you have no specific preference 
for any of the European candidates we jointly propose that you:

VOTE for Kick Willemse

Posted on behalf of the participants in the first European phone conference:
Henrik Biering, Denmark
Kick Willemse, Holland
Lorenzo Cassulo, Italy
Martin Paljak, Estonia
Marcin Jagodzi?ski, Poland
Robert Ott, Switzerland
Simon Josefsson, Sweden
Zdravko Stoychev, Bulgaria
