Hi Eran, 

you are saying that you are not interested in the dynamic client registration 
work and that's OK. There are, however, a couple of other folks in the group 
who had expressed interest to work on it, to review and to implement it. 

Note also that the discovery and the dynamic client registration is different 
from each other; there is a relationship but they are nevertheless different. 

Ciao
Hannes

PS: Moving the Simple Web Discovery to the Apps area working group does not 
mean that it will not be done. On the contrary there will be work happing and 
we are just trying to figure out what the difference between SWD and WebFinger 
is.
