David has presented a proposal for discussion.

It is not an openID spec, it is not part of a WG or covered under openID IPR.

I hope the appropriate work groups are chartered quickly so that this and other 
contributions can be accepted for consideration.

I am assuming David and Facebook intend to contribute this to the OIDF WG 
process.

I commend David for the work he has put in on this.  I know the people at 
Google have been working on a similar proposal.

The Artifact Binding for openID 2.0 WG is chartered and has produced several 
drafts.   We are keeping a close eye on these proposals but can't abandon 
openID 2.0 compatibility.

I have been on a plane from Santiago to LA since David released his discussion 
document.  Once I get to SF tonight I look forward to having more time to 
review it, before IIW starts tomorrow.

We still have a ways to go before we have a final openID vNext spec.
