The 60 day public review of the Provider Authentication Policy Extension (PAPE) Specification draft is complete.  No comments were received that the working group believed required changes to the draft specification.  Therefore, it is the recommendation of the PAPE working group that the membership approve the draft as an OpenID specification, per the OpenID IPR Procedures.  Members should vote at https://openid.net/foundation/members/polls/2 between December 22nd and December 29th. The specification draft is available at these locations:

• http://openid.net/specs/openid-provider-authentication-policy-extension-1_0-07.html
• http://openid.net/specs/openid-provider-authentication-policy-extension-1_0-07.txt

If approved, this will be the first specification to be completed under the IPR Policy and Procedures of the OpenID Foundation -- a significant milestone for the OpenID community.
