http://www.slideshare.net/bkkissel/openid-foundation-market-research-report-from-iiwb-2008-presentation</a> This is just a summary from a more detailed report that Johannes initiated with an outside market research firm named Market Focus. Market Focus attended
the Content Provider Advisory Committee meeting, then did a series of one-on-one interviews with several of the participants as well as other RPs, prospective RPs, and OPs.

Re the CRC work: I personally got on the phone with every board member that I could get a hold of in the week before I asked for funding the external consultant -- you will recall that you and I talked about it, too, on the phone, prior to the board meeting.
