Hi All I hope this is not too much of a beginner question.
I've been reading through the OAuth spec and I was wondering what the role of the access token is. It seems to me after stage 6.2 http://oauth.net/core/1.0a#auth_step2 1. The Service Provider has authorized the Consumer 2. The Service Provider has verified the Consumer Why then does the consumer need an access token, rather than just accessed the permissioned resource directly.
