The results of the OpenID Board election are in!

I received an SMS from Michael Richardson this morning (around 8am here in Hawaii)  congratulating me on my election to the board of the OpenID Foundation. It seems fitting that I should receive first word from him, since, as the Karl Rove of my campaign, he came up with the "kind of a big deal" slogan from Anchorman.Anyway, I'm thrilled about the outcome of the election and am looking forward to working with Snorri Giorgetti, Nat Sakimura, David Recordon, (each of whom received two year terms along with me) and Eric Sachs, Scott Kveton, and Brian Kissel (who received one year terms).I'm also pleased that 80% of the 217 foundation members voted in the first-ever OpenID election. We've obviously got a lot of work ahead of us, but I'm very confident that we'll make great strides in 2009.
