Register profile field names. Fields placed within a profile should not be affected by additional requests made by various websites. Allow each website to query for additional information when needed. Establish a registry for profile field names, and allow users to add to their profile based upon prescribed fields supported by the OP. Don't use the OP as a repository for adhoc additional information that is requested at each site with an intent to share this information! This will lead to a greater amount of information being shared than intended. Such a feature will surely create compatibility issues, especially when there are many ways to establishing this dubious feature. -Doug _______________________________________________ specs mailing list specs@openid.net http://openid.net/mailman/listinfo/specs
