Brad,
You are correct, the OIDF is not a technical forum. Its responsibility is to help facilitate the operation of the technical forum and the applicable IPR policy. The issue I was pointing out was that since the new IPR policy was adopted in December, which calls for explicit workgroups for each spec, no place has it been published how those WGs can be formed and operated by community members in accordance with the IPR policy. So none of this is under the control of the OIDF, but it is their responsibility to help community members make it happen. I just sent a note the OIDF board mailing list suggesting this is something that needs attention on the call this week. =Drummond _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brad Fitzpatrick Sent: Monday, March 10, 2008 11:01 AM To: Drummond Reed Cc: Noah Slater; specs@openid.net; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [OpenID] Problems with OpenID and TAG httpRange-14 Drummond, I was under the impression that the OpenID Foundation wasn't a technical forum.

No, this is the right place, and until the WGs are started, any discussion should take place on this list. I'll bring it up at the next OpenID Foundation board meeting (this Thursday) so board members are aware of this issue. =Drummond _______________________________________________ specs mailing list specs@openid.net http://openid.net/mailman/listinfo/specs
