Sorry for the slow response, Torsten, I was on vacation last week with my
family.

The omission of scope values in the example requests wasn't really
intentional so much as just an initial desire to have a minimal amount of
stuff in the examples. Adding a scope parameter to the example
authorization request (Figure 1) would probably be a good thing to do. I'll
make a note to do so.

As far as the relationship between scope and resource. Scope is *what*
access is being requested/granted. And resource is about *where* a
particular access token will be used. I envision resource as allowing for
scope to

Note that, as currently written anyway, resource is unlike scope in that
it's not something that the end-user approves or denies access to and it's
not something that is persisted with the grant. It only informs the access
token being requested at the time. So it'd be used at the token endpoint
when getting an access token. And only at the authorization endpoint when
an access token will come back directly in the authorization response
(implicit flows).

Currently, yes, multiple resources are allowed by the draft to indicate
multiple RSs.  Though there's a note in there questioning it because it
complicates things in some situations where different token content or
encryption is needed for different RSs that are asked for in the same
request.
