If this were to take the form I described in my original message, effectively *all* discovery mechanisms become extensions. The HTTP/HTTPS one gets special treatment by getting referenced by a MUST in the core spec, but it's still a separate document. i-names would be handled as part of the "OpenID Discovery for XRI URIs" specification I mentioned. _______________________________________________ specs mailing list specs@openid.net http://openid.net/mailman/listinfo/specs
