X or Y and are willing to present), or you are part of the Solution
(you are or will be active in an OpenID Working Group).</p><p>This is NOT a Summit for those that want to learn about OpenID.</p><p>We will start off after lunch on Monday, April 5th with short
presentations about the Problem, followed by an evening of beer and
food and lively discussion. </p><p>Tuesday, April 6th will be a full day (starting at 9am) where we
will have technology presentations, open space for ad hoc topics, and
then next step discussions for Working Groups.</p><p>The 2010 theme for the OpenID Technical Committee is OpenID v Next.
Our goal is to pull the community together so that we can understand
what we collectively need the technology to do next, and kick off
Working Groups to make that happen. This Summit is that start of the
process. </p><p>Agenda suggestions? Interested in giving a presentation? Other questions? Shoot <a href="mailto:specs@openid.net">specs@openid.net</a> an email.</p>

<h3>Hosts</h3><p>Google & Microsoft</p>
<h3> </h3><p><strong>Topic Guidelines</strong></p><p>We are looking for people to give presentations about the issues the
barriers their organization has in deploying OpenID either as an OP or
RP. We are also looking for technologists to give presentations on how
to resolve the issues identified.</p><p>We are not looking for presentations on "Here is how OpenID works",
"My thoughts on OpenID", or "Here is what my company has done / will do
with OpenID". These are all important presentations, but this is not
the right venue.</p><div> <br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><p><strong>Presentation Format</strong></p><p>Each talk will have an enforced 10 minute time limit, followed by 5
minutes for Q&A and getting the next speaker lined up. We have lots
of break times for people to discuss the topics in more detail. We also
will reserve a number of open slots that can be used for followup talks
Tuesday afternoon.</p><p>Please prepare your presentation ahead of time and take at least 20
minutes to practice running through your presentation a couple times.
If you do the work creating an presentation that effectively
communicates your message, you are more likely to get people to solve
your problem or adopt your solution. As an added incentive, we will
also have a prize for the best presentation.</p><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div></div></body></html>
