Discussion of OIDF Proposal
Any concerns / thoughts about proposal on the table before we can move it?
Not sure about the exact membership categories. Perhaps these categories / levels might change over time. We need feedback from the community on the structure, not necessarily the exact dollar amounts?
We should not tie the membership into the sponsorship.
"Random choice" instead of "toss of a coin" for selecting the board positions that expire 1 year from now vs. 2 years from now. 3 positions will expire in 1 year, not "half (of 7)".
David will update the document, put on OpenID / Foundation wiki, send around to board list, and then send out to the general list.
Intellectual Property
There's an initial draft from Ron More, feedback from Drummond and Gabe has been sent, but there are substantial points that need to be discussed and need consensus.
When should we publish drafts to whom? As soon as possible on the wiki.
Outside experienced IP laywers should look this over. Artur will reach out to EFF. Bill will reach out to Scott Blackmer.
Other
Should we do a common event at the Web 2.0 expo? When? Artur will talk to Brady and get back with a suggestion.
Technical work with Microsoft can only continue once IPR policy is in place.
Current status / action items to get ready for IIW.

- Submit documents to the state -- once ready -- Bill
