I never agreed to withdraw the proposal. I understood that there was
momentum for it to happen elsewhere but as you know strongly disagreed
with that approach.

Hi Allen
Thanks for the response. My point in this email is that at the end
of the meeting, it was agreed that Connect was not going to be done
in the OIDF, which means the WG proposal would be withdrawn. With
you and David agreeing on the specs council call that Connect should
be a WG, that goes counter to what we had concluded at the meeting.
Note that I was not the one to suggest that Connect was not going to
be in the OIDF, but since that was what everyone had agreed to,
there was no point in talking about how it would be done in the OIDF.

Hi Dick,
Although I might not have expressed this as strongly as I should
have last Friday, I believe that we should be working on an
identity layer for OAuth2 within the OIDF.
Yahoo will definitely be implementing this, and I would expect that
all other OAuth SPs to do the same. It would definitely simplify
things if we could have a single standard interface that can do
everything that OpenID 2.0 +AX+Hybrid can do today, and also be
extensible to be used for future services and even for OP specific
proprietary APIs as well.
I expect that an OAuth based identity layer would be widely
implemented and far more widely used than OpenID, making OpenID
largely irrelevant. Therefore, I think it's in the OIDFs best
interest to back this imitative.
However, on Friday, I did get the impression that there is not
sufficent consensus to move forward. If that's still the case, then
there's no point forcing the issue. The work is going to get done
either way.
Hope that clarifies things

When we met last Friday to discuss how Connect and v.Next would
work together, the four of you had agreed that it would be best
doing the Connect work outside the OIDF. I had come to the meeting
to talk about how we would merge or align the efforts, but since
there was consensus to do it outside, we did not discuss.
From actions I have seen today, it seems that there has been a
change since then and that you are planning on working on Connect
per the original charter. As emailed separately, I have concerns
with the charter as drafted.
I am very disappointed that I learn about your change in mind by
seeing postings on public mailing lists.
WTF?
