<p class=MsoNormal>Whether or not their blog, wiki etc supports OpenID is way
down on my list of criteria for a qualified candidate for the board.<br>
<br>
I don't expect Canadian politicians to be active research scientists - but
rather to create, fund & push policies that support scientific research.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Ok. Ill open up the rules a bit.
The candidate’s claim to be ACUTALLY using openid does not have to be a
blog comment form. It could be a wiki, or a registration site they manage,
or…**anything** (in public) that I can apply myopenid. Ideally, I should
be able to find the openid logo (so I don’t hit the initial Snorri
situation). If your firm is selling travel wiki software, and its customers are
using openid in practice to flog airtickets, that’s fine! Anything will
do!</span><o:p></o:p></p>
