Well, I wanted to get started in the next days. I thought of providing a rough 
draft, based on OSCs whitepaper, and share that with you and OSC. It will 
also go through a review on a (public) Task Force, the TERENA Task Force 
"Mobility", creator of a worldwide roaming service for the education and 
research community:

Later on, it is hopefully good enough to be considered as worthy of getting an 
(informational?) RFC number at the IETF.

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
