I'd be open to a proposal for also supporting encryption.  The draft was 
intended to be a starting point for productive discussion - not a finished 
product.

Your thoughts?

Subject: Re: [OAUTH-WG] JSON Web Token (JWT) Specification Draft

Did you intentionally decide not to support encrypting the token?

Recognizing that there is substantial interest in representing sets of claims

To answer the obvious question, while this was produced independently of Dirk's 
JSON token 
proposal<http://balfanz.github.com/jsontoken-spec/draft-balfanz-jsontoken-00.html>,
 both of us agree that we should come up with a unified spec.  Consider this an 
additional point in the possible design space from which to start discussions 
and drive consensus.  (If you read the two proposals, I think you'll find that 
there's already a lot in common, which is great.)

Thanks to those of you who have already given us feedback to improve the draft 
prior to this point.
