The OpenID Summit Chicago hosted by Sears pulled together a large group of relying parties who benefited from updates from identity providers and focused on real world implementation issues. The OpenID Summit Mountain View, co hosted by Microsoft and Google, organized the working groups that are at work today. </span><span lang="EN-GB">The OIDF extended its international reach at the OpenID Summit London and coupled it with the European e-Identity Management Conference. The Microsoft hosted Summit in London provided important information and encouragement to OpenID advocates and technologists. The EU initiatives were impressive and deserving of ongoing support and greater visibility.</span></p>
