David Recordon sent email to the OpenID discussion list announcing the formation of the OpenID Foundation, an organization which I have been involved with for several months. Though I declined to participate as a board member, I have been actively participating in its formation and its IPR policies. Specifically, we need an IPR policy that is clear (including license language along the line patent promises/RF licenses/assertions) and reduces any friction for open source implementers. I hope we can announce progress in this direction Real Soon Now.
You can read the announcement and call for input on the proposed charter here.
