I was prompted to write this draft after the OATH WG meeting at the last
IETF in March, in which several folks in the room were comparing OAuth with
Kerberos. Some people also suggested to me that a comparative doc might be
useful.

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-hardjono-oauth-kerberos-00.txt

The hope is that if OAuth 2.0 wanted to use the Needham-Schroeder (Kerberos)
authentication paradigm, that OAuth could learn from the two decades of
Kerberos development.
