[OpenID] e-ID conference Brussels Belgium 16th and 17th of March

[Nat Sakimura]

Hi Kick,

I am doing two projects with Japanese Government right now. One is to 
facilitate Public Sector - Private Sector cross sector identity usage, 
and the other is a cross telco initiative. Both of them are OpenID related.

Unfortunately, I cannot travel in March because both project and another 
one is closing in March, but I might be able to provide some information 
if I can get the permission from the government.

Would you be interested?
