I think it is more likely that the flow for the user will be that they know an RS and the RS provides some reference to the AS. The RS might well consume a generic lookup flow though. We do need the "updated webfinger thing" for users as a generic though.
The WF type thing for a generic user lookup in a domain might be used for discovering the SMTP/IMAP/webmail entrypoints for a user along with the AS and that's another possible useful thing. User specific rather than apparently server/service specific.

It seems you assume the AS can always be discoverd using the user id of the resource owner. I think the underlying assumption is resource servers accept access token of different (any?) user specific AS (and OP)? From my perspective, RSs nowadays typically trust _the_ AS of their security domain/ecosystem and all resource owners need to have an user account with this particular AS. So I would assume the process to start at the RS. We potentially need to cover for both cases. What do you think? best regards, Torsten.

This fills a hole in the current OAuth specification set that is necessary to achieve interoperability. Indeed, the Interoperability section of OAuth 2.0 states: In addition, this specification leaves a few required components partially or fully undefined (e.g., client registration, authorization server capabilities, endpoint discovery). Without these components, clients must be manually and specifically configured against a specific authorization server and resource server in order to interoperate. This framework was designed with the clear expectation that future work will define prescriptive profiles and extensions necessary to achieve full web-scale interoperability. This specification enables discovery of both endpoint locations and authorization server capabilities. This specification is based upon the already widely deployed OpenID Connect Discovery 1.0 specification and is compatible with it, by design. The OAuth Discovery spec removes the portions of OpenID Connect Discovery that are OpenID specific and adds metadata values for Revocation and Introspection endpoints. It also maps OpenID concepts, such as OpenID Provider, Relying Party, End-User, and Issuer to their OAuth underpinnings, respectively Authorization Server, Client, Resource Owner, and the newly introduced Configuration Information Location. Some identifiers with names that appear to be OpenID specific were retained for compatibility purposes; despite the reuse of these identifiers that appear to be OpenID specific, their usage in this specification is actually referring to general OAuth 2.0 features that are not specific to OpenID Connect. The specification is available at: · http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jones-oauth-discovery-00 An HTML-formatted version is also available at: · http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-jones-oauth-discovery-00.html -- Mike P.S.
