VeriSign has been an important contributor to both from the very beginning and remains so today. Many of us recognize the leadership you've shown in reprogramming VeriSign resources to support the government adoption of OpenID last year and the launch of the Open Identity Exchange earlier this year. Your professionalism as a board member and help to me is particularly appreciated. Good luck with your new responsibilities. Don Thibeau Executive Director The OpenID Foundation -----Original Message----- From: Krall, Gary [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 24, 2010 8:18 PM To: Don Thibeau (OIDF ED) Cc: John Ehrig; Popp, Nicolas Subject: VeriSign representative change Don: As you know, VeriSign's annual membership comes due every April and in coincident with that I will be stepping down as VeriSign's representative and I'll be replaced by Nico Popp who will assume the role as VeriSign's representative. Nico is planning to attend the annual F2F meeting/kickoff on the 5th. I've very much appreciated the opportunity in participating at the very formative stage of the OIDF and being able to watch it grow into a vibrant and active community. Unfortunately commitments here at Verisign on new initiatives causes me not to be able to put in the bandwidth and commitment you are expecting from individual corporate members. Nico's activities with the OIX and his past involvement in OpenID will serve both the OIDF as well as VeriSign moving forward and more than likely will result in much more active participation on the part of VeriSign as we move forward in the coming year. Thanks again for the opportunity. Gary. _______________________________________________ board mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openid.net/mailman/listinfo/openid-board _______________________________________________ board mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openid.net/mailman/listinfo/openid-board
