[OpenID] Fwd: [OpenID Foundation] New Poll Opened

[SitG Admin]

To quickly clarify one detail before moving on to my main point, 
*I'm* not voting against the WG.

>Wait! Isn't this supposed to be part of the WG itself? I'm not in 
>favor of popup windows at all, however I think the discussions and 
>arguments should go into the WG

Does this mean that they shouldn't be permitted *outside* the WG?

We're not much of a transparent community if we tell those who want 
to openly discuss something that, no, that's a restricted topic . . . 
"restricted" in that the OIDF has approved it as something to be 
worked on (!!) . . . they'll have to join the WG, which by the way 
means signing something, making the appropriate commitments, and 
meeting some preconditions.

If those who *are* outside the WG want to forward something from 
outside it to those inside, I'm fine with that (and this may be the 
best way of compromising between excluding those who can't join a WG 
and not missing out on their input), but let's not make "contributing 
to the community" a privilege.
