OpenID Authentication 2.0 predraft 11 uses the "openid." prefix inconsistently.
For instance, §5.2.3 has dot-points for “openid.mode”, “openid.error”,
“openid.contact”…, whereas §5.1.2.2 has dot-points for “error”, “contact”….
The data format example (§4.1.3) uses “mode” and “error” keys in the Key-Value
Form encoding, but “openid.mode” and “openid.error” in the x-www-urlencoded
example in the very next paragraph. I assume it should be “openid.mode” and
“openid.error” everywhere.
Text such as
Value: "associate"
or
Default: "HMAC-SHA1"
appears throughout the spec. A assume the quotes do NOT appear in the
protocol. A sentence to this effect in §4.1 Protocol Messages would help, as
would more comprehensive examples.
Add this sentence to §4.1:
“Specific values are shown in double quotes within this specification (eg
Value: "associate") but the quotes do not appear in the protocol messages (eg
openid.mode=associate).”
