FYI, the OAuth Core and Bearer specifications have reached IETF last call 
status - the last step before becoming RFCs.  See the following notes from the 
Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG).

Subject: [OAUTH-WG] Last Call: <draft-ietf-oauth-v2-23.txt> (The OAuth 2.0 
Authorization Protocol) to Proposed Standard


The IESG has received a request from the Web Authorization Protocol WG
(oauth) to consider the following document:
- 'The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Protocol'
  <draft-ietf-oauth-v2-23.txt> as a Proposed Standard

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final 
comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] 
mailing lists by 2012-02-06. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to 
[email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the 
Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


   The OAuth 2.0 authorization protocol enables a third-party
   application to obtain limited access to an HTTP service, either on
   behalf of a resource owner by orchestrating an approval interaction
   between the resource owner and the HTTP service, or by allowing the
   third-party application to obtain access on its own behalf.  This
   specification replaces and obsoletes the OAuth 1.0 protocol described
   in RFC 5849.

Subject: [OAUTH-WG] Last Call: <draft-ietf-oauth-v2-bearer-15.txt> (The OAuth 
2.0 Authorization Protocol: Bearer Tokens) to Proposed Standard


The IESG has received a request from the Web Authorization Protocol WG
(oauth) to consider the following document:
- 'The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Protocol: Bearer Tokens'
  <draft-ietf-oauth-v2-bearer-15.txt> as a Proposed Standard

Abstract


   This specification describes how to use bearer tokens in HTTP
   requests to access OAuth 2.0 protected resources.  Any party in
   possession of a bearer token (a "bearer") can use it to get access to
   the associated resources (without demonstrating possession of a
   cryptographic key).  To prevent misuse, bearer tokens need to be
   protected from disclosure in storage and in transport.
