Update re: OpenID Connect Milestones The OIDF Work Group for OpenId Connect has been making steady progress. OpenID Foundation Community Board Member Alan Tom has volunteered to help drive OpenID Connect launch plan and represent OpenID Connect to key companies identified by the Board as part of the 2011 outreach and adoption goals. Alan plans to pull together suggestions from plans developed by JanRain, Google, Ping Identity and others to solicit developer community feedback for the next three months. Planning for a hoped for end of year international roll out of OpenID Connect is underway by Nat Sakimura, Kick Willemse and John Bradley. As per the Board's direction we are taking a measured approach for testing with results available for a board level status discussion at a OpenID Summit planned for September. The Board will consider direct funding proposals including a update to openid.net to support a potential international launch.
