[Marketing] Website Design - Get an OpenID Link

[Recordon, David]

I think we should stay away from tying this to Foundation membership as it isn't having a certification program or such.  I don't see an issue with providing a way to annotate Foundation membership, languages supported, etc on the page for each Provider.

What are everyone's thoughts on having a link to a list of OP's on the
openid.net site.  The link would go to a list of OP's that are members of
the foundation (meet membership criteria). The order of the list would
change each time the page loaded or refreshed (so as to not prefer one OP
over another).

The current state of the site and the fact that end users go there to learn
or find an OP, I believe is definitely a major point of confusion.

Thoughts?
