I noticed that a new HTTP authentication scheme has been defined: GOOG1.

http://code.google.com/apis/storage/docs/developer-guide.html#authentication



Is this a candidate for the signature spec?

It should be the sort of scheme that OAuth core can provide credentials for 
(access key & secret) without the scheme needing to know about OAuth.



[It is an HMAC-SHA1; carried in the Authorization header; calculated over the 
method (eg GET), date, content-type, URI path (but not host or scheme), 
MD5-hash of request body (optional), and some proprietary headers (eg 
access-control details). It looks very similar to the Amazon S3 scheme.]
