I was unable to attend the UTA meeting today but I had a chance to look

To my surprise I had to notice that the authors have re-created a number
of mechanisms we created in OAuth.

I am wondering whether the authors are aware of this or whether this
re-design (with just minor variations) is intentional.

In either case it isn't great and I encourage the authors to take a look
at already ongoing efforts.

Well, OAuth is just Kerberos for the Web, right? ;-)

It *could* be (I haven't looked at the slides) that the same underlying pattern from Kerberos and OAuth/OAuth2 can be applied to UTA in new and different and interesting ways.

But in general I'd agree that it's a bit early to be building something completely new, given that OAuth is of recent vintage.
