<p class="MsoNormal">You’ve probably followed the fact that the OpenID Foundation has launched the RP Certification program.  If you’re the author of an OpenID Connect relying party library, it would be great if you could certify your RP software as part of

 “testing the tests”.  This would also enable you to be part of the launch press release next month during the RSA Conference (February 13<sup>th</sup>).  You should plan complete your certification by February 6<sup>th</sup> to be included in the press release.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">RP Certification is free and available to OpenID Foundation members during the pilot phase.  After the pilot ends – probably on February 13<sup>th</sup>, the usual fees will apply.  If you’re not a member, you or your organization can join
