[Openid-specs-risc] New Leadership for RISC WG

[Nat Sakimura]

Adam,
Thanks very much for chairing the group and guiding us to this date. I hope
your new journey will be a fruitful one again.

Welcome Annabelle and Marius. The RISC effort is an important one for the
identity industry and beyond. I am looking forward to work with you.

Best,

Nat
