At the moment profile information is private by default and only provided to an RP after the OAuth dance. That said, public/searchable profiles are useful. I think your idea and the current private by default can co-exist. Users should be able to opt-in to making a portion of their profile public. We would then provide a search mechanism that returns the public profile information for a user. If an RP wishes for additional user information, they have to go through the OAuth dance and for ask the user's permission. This would allow a user to make their email address & public key public, but nothing more. Shane
