I'll put forth the motion that the OpenID Foundation participate in this event as a sponsor as we see this as a valuable part of the open web eco-system we're trying to promote. The sponsorship would be in the form of managing the finances for the event and sending representatives. David and I can make sure to promote that accordingly on the SG Foo site, etc. Thoughts? - Scott _______________________________________________ board mailing list [email protected] http://openid.net/mailman/listinfo/board
