<p>This issue is blocked because it requires a policy decision about who we should accept for OSM as an auth provider. This is not a technical issue but concerns the OSM project as a whole, so this issue tracker is the wrong place to discuss that. These policy decisions fall into the responsibility domain of the OWG.</p>

<p>Agreed <a href="https://github.com/lonvia" class="user-mention">@lonvia</a>, this is a policy issue. In general, the (not very well documented) pattern for policy and guidance in the OSMF is that an issue is raised and discussed within membership, a working group, or elsewhere; is brought to the attention of the Board; Board decides on a policy process, usually driven by or in consultation with one or more working groups; Board votes to approve the policy or guideline. Naturally Conflict of Interest rules would apply as part of any formal decisions.</p>
