Unfortunately I can not vote because the authentication of OpenID
doesn't accept the StartSSL OP for some reason. Somebody has been in
contact with me, but has not produced any practical solution nor even
understanding of the problem. (PS. it used to work without problems and
we haven't changed anything on our side)<br>
<br>
I haven't had a chance to review the candidates even. <br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;">Two important <u>all</u>
member
activities are currently underway: the IPR Process revision voting and
community board seat nominations. I encourage you to make your views

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;">Nominations for the
board end on
the 7<sup>th</sup>. This election will go long way towards
answering how we can best anticipate the natural evolution of the
OIDF.
The all volunteer meritocracy and open source experiment that
characterized
OpenID’s roots and amazing adoption to date will be tested. The one
thing
for certain is that the new board will oversee a reinvention of the
OpenID
Foundation; driving governance and strategic issues; where the
foundation is
and where the new Board will want it to go in 2010. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><o:p> </o:p></p>
