OP Identifier vs. OP-Specific Identifier
So I'm working on cleaning up the terminology section with edits from Drummond. On first read I had no idea what the difference between "OP Identifier" and "OP-Specific Identifier" were. Now that my brain has kicked in I do, but I have the feeling this is going to be really confusing for others reading the specification. I really think we need to get our terminology down, since right now it is honestly quite confusing: - Identifier (umbrella definition) - Claimed Identifier (umbrella definition) - OP-Specific Identifier (needs context) - OP Identifier (needs context) - Public Identifier (tries to create context) - Private Identifier (tries to create context) - Privacy-protected login (have we even defined this) How can we clean this up? I think the problem is that we're trying to describe features via the terminology section. --David ___ specs mailing list specs@openid.net http://openid.net/mailman/listinfo/specs
