Hello, I spent some time thinking over the issues and going over the discussions that have happened about identifier recycling, and I wrote up what I understand about the issue on the OpenID.net wiki [1]. I think that my best contribution was to try to come up with as many use cases as I could that related to identifier recycling. I'd love help in fleshing out the use cases that I came up with, or additions of any use cases that I missed.
I also wrote up what I knew about each of the proposals for implementing identifier recycling on its own wiki page. Those pages are linked from the page with the use cases [1]. I hope that these documents can help us to reach a conclusion about identifier recycling. I tried to keep commentary and bias to a minimum. (You get enough of that from me here on the mailing list.) I hope that by refining these proposals on the wiki and fleshing out the use cases, we can understand the problem better and home in on the solution that best solves the problem.
