Yeah I've noticed. I decided to start with reading the OAuth IETF document first so I'm totally familiarized with the protocol. Then I'm going to look at the PHP extension (although in the long run I don't want to have it as a dependency), and finally I'm going to look through the mailing list and other stuff. Then I'll draft some stuff and put it out here for discussion.
