OpenID Foundation Board of Directors 

The Executive Committee unanimously recommends the adoption of two resolutions 
on our Thursday call:

RESOLUTION G: Guidelines for OpenID Foundation Certification Program 

WHEREAS the OpenID Foundation OpenID Certification program allows entities to 
formally and publicly declare that their specific deployment of a product or 
service conforms to a specific conformance profile of the OpenID Connect 
protocol, and 

WHEREAS, in connection with the operation of the Certification Program, it has 
been proposed that OIDF adopt the following OpenID Foundation Certification 
Program Guidelines:
Adoption is the foundation's highest priority.
The foundation's goals include incentivizing membership, certification of 
multiple profiles per implementation and international participation.
Certification Profiles are rolled out in three phases: pilot by early adopters, 
membership beta and general availability.
OpenID Certification pilots and betas are to be available to all members in 
good standing.
Upon completion of the beta and pilot phases, certification for those profiles 
will be made available to non-members.
All fees are waived during the pilot phase; fees will be charged during the 
beta and general availability phases.
The Foundation intends to authorize fees sufficient to cover the costs of 
operating a certification program once the corresponding pilot phase is 
complete.
OpenID Foundation Certification fees are to be the same for all members.
Certification fees are due at the time of submission and are charged per 
implementation.
Certification(s) will be approved once payment is received.

Now, therefore, be it RESOLVED that the OIDF Board APPROVE the OpenID 
Foundation Certification Program Guidelines as proposed and presented. 

RESOLUTION L. Formation of liaison committee and delegation of power to the 
committee

WHEREAS the OpenID Foundation board recognises the importance of the liaison 
communications being made in a timely fashion, now 

BE IT RESOLVED that 
(1) the liaison committee (LC) to be created with its member being the liaison 
officers and EC members; 
(2) the LC to be given a delegation of power as to the creation and 
authorization of the liaison communications to the liaison organisation;  
(3) the LC's decision shall be by the simple majority of the LC members either 
in a quorate meeting or the majority of the entire LC expressed by the written 
consent by the LC members; 
(4) The LC shall report the liaison communication made in the next board 
meeting after the communication was made.
