The usability of the claims stuff worries me. The use cases are all written with the user previously acquiring a claim. What is the user experience if the user visits a site that requires a claim and the user does not have a claim. Are they sent to the appropriate site to get the claim? Will most users understand what a claim is? or does this all need to seemlessly happen? I think a use case that outlines this scenario should be added.

e.g.

Beth gives her friend, [EMAIL PROTECTED], access to her photos. Adam receives an email from Beth inviting him to view her photos. He goes to the site, which requests a verified email claim. His identity agent does not presently have such a claim. His identity agent retrieves the required claim from his e-mail provider. His identity agent then presents this claim and gains access to the photos Beth has published for him.

There may also be some use cases around expired claims that I think need to be present if claims are going to receive appropriate coverage.

Both good points. I'll add use cases for them.

I've not documented Lisa and Rob's non-browser based use cases for DIX over HTTP and other protocols, as I'm not necessarily familiar enough with
each case to do them justice. I would however encourage the group to
write them up though. Volunteers?

I'll take a stab at some.

Super. I'll fold those into the draft when they're done.

John
