[OpenID] Authorized Voting for Email Like Identifiers

[Santosh Rajan]

A Vote authorized by the foundation must be conducted to decide whether
Email Like identifiers will be in the core spec of OpenID 2.1.
If that is not possible the foundation must officially announce whether
Email like identifiers will be in the Core Spec of 2.1.

This will greatly help people decide, how and on what to spend their time
and effort, and will also ensure that their time and effort does not go to
waste.

I also see an urgency in this matter because ideally I would like to see 2.1
come out soon because there will be Wave servers being released by the last
quarter of the year. If we can have 2.1 before that we will be in a position
to offer OpenID as an alternative. Otherwise I am sure XMPP authentication
will grow into a Federated authentication.
