Hi Eran,

why do you see a relationship between dynamic client registration and discovery? Basically, we don't care so far how a client finds tokens and end-user authorization point. Why is this any different for the client registration endpoint (or the revocation endpoint)? Or do you have a bigger picture in mind?

regards,
Torsten.

Where did I say I'm not interested in this work?!

All I was saying is that it would be better to postpone it until the discovery 
layer, which this draft clearly relies upon, is a bit clearer. I would be 
satisfied with a simple note stating that if the discovery work at the APP area 
isn't complete, the WG may choose to delay work on this document until ready.

Hi Eran,

you are saying that you are not interested in the dynamic client registration
work and that's OK. There are, however, a couple of other folks in the group
who had expressed interest to work on it, to review and to implement it.

Note also that the discovery and the dynamic client registration is different
from each other; there is a relationship but they are nevertheless different.

Ciao

PS: Moving the Simple Web Discovery to the Apps area working group does
not mean that it will not be done. On the contrary there will be work happing
and we are just trying to figure out what the difference between SWD and
WebFinger is.

I'd like to see 'Dynamic Client Registration' removed from the charter along
with SWD for the sole reason that figuring out a generic discovery mechanism
is going to take some time and this WG has enough other work to focus on
while that happens elsewhere. I expect this to come back in the next round
with much more deployment experience and discovery clarity.

Subject: [OAUTH-WG] Dynamic Client Registration

Hi all,

at the IETF#83 OAuth working group meeting we had some confusion
about the Dynamic Client Registration and the Simple Web Discovery
item. I just listened to the audio recording again.

With the ongoing mailing list discussion regarding WebFinger vs.
Simple Web Discovery I hope that folks had a chance to look at the
documents again and so the confusion of some got resolved.

I believe the proposed new charter item is sufficiently clear with
regard to the scope of the work. Right?
Here is the item again:
"
Jul. 2013  Submit 'OAuth Dynamic Client Registration Protocol' to the
IESG for consideration as a Proposed Standard

[Starting point for the work will be
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hardjono-oauth-dynreg
]
"

Of course there there is a relationship between Simple Web Discovery
(or
WebFinger) and the dynamic client registration since the client first
needs to discover the client registration endpoint at the
authorization server before interacting with it.

Now, one thing that just came to my mind when looking again at draft-
hardjono-oauth-dynreq was the following: Could the Client
Registration Request and Response protocol exchange could become a
profile of the SCIM protocol? In some sense this exchange is nothing
else than provisioning an account at the Authorization Server (along with
some meta-data).
Is this too far fetched?

Ciao
Hannes
