Hi Breno,

I am looking at this whole thing from a different point of view Here is how
I want to explain it.

1) We need to first agree on the XML or JSON format that will be supported
for discovery. It may be XRD, RDF or Atom or whatever. I am open to any
format.
2) In the discovery phase only service endpoints are exposed. No other info
about the user is exposed at this stage. This will presumably keep the
privacy advocates happy.
2) It makes sense to use the same format, after the the authentication, for
the AX phase. So if we are going to use Atom format for discovery, then let
the AX phase also use Atom. That will keep the developers happy!. They need
to only worry about one data format.

I really want to work on this area, will anyone be interested in starting a
working group on this area? If yes let us do it. Of course there are a lot
of problems to be sorted on the way. But hey I think it is worth a try.

Thanks

Santosh
