"We're still dealing with ws-federation passive profile in saml dominated
world. The oauth working group shouldn't repeat that sin."
Well said, Chuck, I couldn't agree more.
The world doesn't need two different OAuth-like SSO protocols and all the
confusion and interoperability problems that would come with it for years
to come. And that's what we will have, if a4c diverges from either OAuth or
Connect. And if it doesn't diverge, it'll just be a restatement of parts of
Connect in the IETF. I think that would be a waste of the valuable time of
this WG, which has other important work to do.
