<p class="MsoNormal">We’re currently short one member because David Recordon removed himself from the Specs Council in June 2012 and we never replaced him. I propose that we fill the open seat with Tim Bray – the editor of the Account Chooser spec. I’d spoken
to him about the possibility and he’s willing to serve. Any objections?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Johnny, Allen, and Dick, I’ll also add that none of you have been an active editor in the last two years (please correct me if I’m wrong!), so by the criteria in the process document (see below), you are no longer eligible editors. Therefore,
it’s probably time to replace you on the specs council as well. (Although I do encourage you to express your views on the current Mobile Connect Profile working group proposal before the specs council – even if it’s to state that you have no views.)<o:p></o:p></p>

<a href="http://openid.net/wordpress-content/uploads/2010/01/OpenID_Process_Document_December_2009_Final_Approved.pdf">
OpenID Process document</a>:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="ClauseLevel2" style="margin-left:.35in;text-indent:0in;mso-list:none"><b>1.4</b> “<b>Editor(s)</b>” means, for a particular Specification to be developed by a particular WG, the individual Contributor(s) selected to coordinate development of, and
transcription of the work of the WG for, such Specification, as well as (together with any other Editors for that WG) to administer WG operation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="ClauseLevel2" style="margin-left:.35in;text-indent:0in;mso-list:none"><b>1.5</b> “<b>Eligible Editors</b>” means, as determined on a given date, all Editors from current WGs and all other persons who: (a) were WG Editors at any time in the two years
before such date; (b) are alive and have provided and maintained updated contact information with the OpenID Foundation; and (c) elect to participate in selection of the Specifications Council after at least seven days’ email notice.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="ClauseLevel2" style="margin-left:.35in;text-indent:0in;mso-list:none"><b>1.6</b> “<b>Specifications Council</b>” means a group comprised of: (a) two representatives selected by the Board; and (b) five representatives selected by the Eligible Editors.
The Board may select from among the current Board members (or other appropriate persons, as determined by the Board), and the Eligible Editors may select from among themselves (or other appropriate persons, as the Eligible Editors determine).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="ClauseLevel1" style="mso-list:none"><b>2 Specifications Council.</b> The initial Specifications Council, as of the date these Processes are adopted, will be comprised of two persons selected by the Board and five persons selected by the then-current
OpenID Authentication 2.0 Specification Editors. The members of the Specifications Council will serve for two year terms (although one of the initial members selected by the Board and two of the initial members selected by the Editors of the OpenID Authentication
2.0 Specification will serve for only a one year term – as selected by consensus of the Specifications Council – so that Specifications Council membership terms may be staggered). There are no “term limits” for Specifications Council membership, and the Board
or Eligible Editors, as applicable, may re-select the same persons to serve for more than one term (consecutive or otherwise). In the event that a Specifications Council member failed to participate in the discussion of two consecutive working group proposals,
the member will be deemed to have resigned, and new specifications council members who are committed to participating in the process will be appointed to replace the member.<b><o:p></o:p></b></p>
