I'm not sure if we need a more formal process, though what you
proposed (of self nominations) is different than last time when one
board member nominated another.
I need some more time to think about companies as officers of the
Foundation -- it feels a bit strange -- though allowing it would then
effect the composition of the executive committee which is currently
the four officers (Chair, Vice-Chair, Treasurer, and Secretary) in
addition to one corporate board member (which seems to go against "we
are one board in all respects other those specifically called out in
the bylaws"). If the officers were allowed to be companies, then it
does not seem like the fifth member of the Executive Committee should
be limited to a corporate board member.

standing decision.)
I would imagine that people would self-nominate and make a statement
on the call, but I suppose that we could have a more formal process
of people want to.

Subject: [OpenID board] Officer Elections?
How will the officer elections work on the call next week? I remember
something like a nomination and a second from last time though it
seemed fairly hard to do over the phone. Just wondering how we see
the process working, if corporate members are eligible to be officers,
and if there is any part of it we should try to complete before the
actual call.
Thanks,
