I agree with John's point that we want to get this work under OIDF IPR 
protections ASAP.  That's why I've been encouraging Paul to submit the charter 
and get the working group approved so we can start collecting IPR agreements.

I believe that whether the working group eventually decides to factor the work 
to also include working on specifications in the IETF or other organizations is 
a separable issue.  It's clear that there's an OIDF-specific portion because 
part of the work is a profile of OpenID Connect, so at the very least, we need 
to establish IPR protections using the working group process for that portion 
of the work.

We floated the idea of starting this as a IETF ID, but it was felt that getting 
it under the OIDF IPR policy as soon as possible was preferable if any of it 
was to become a OIDF spec.

I would not characterize the Dynamic registration work as a disaster of any 
sort.  It is true that once in the IETF these things are harder to keep 
focuses, however that argues for developing the profile inside the OIDF.

Given that we have already included some things in connect like "azp" to enable 
intermediate agent to get id_tokens to be consumed by 3rd parties we also 
considered doing it in the connect WG.
I personally thought a separate WG was preferable to avoid people who have IPR 
commitments to Connect from being forced to make them for this without taking 
an affirmative action to join the WG.

As we dig into this the work may need to be separated into several 
specifications as delegation of a token to a 3rd party, basing authorization of 
a 3rd parties resource server on an external assertion,  bootstrapping web 
applications from a native app, and proxying OAuth requests.   That will be the 
decision of the WG once it is chartered.

I appreciate your intrest in making sure that we correctly set the scope of the 
WG.

The user experience may be SSO but that is only 1 type of experience, this is a 
byproduct of the token delegation. I don't want the situation we are in with 
dynamic registration we are now, having to keep the OIDF work in sync with the 
IETF work, its suck. I think this could be easily profiled in IETF to be 
generic and then anything specific can be done in OIDF

it enables a 'login once, enjoy seamless access' across multiple native apps - 
how is that not SSO? While the mechanism may be token delegation, the user 
experience is SSO

The proposal is to profile OIDC - it's not a distinct protocol - that's why we 
are bringing it to OIDF

This is a real crappy name, as its not SSO, it's a "token delegation agent" (so 
proposal is to handle both authentication and authorization). Question is does 
it belong here or at IETF, if the dynamic registration fits in IETF why 
wouldn't this ?

This proposed charter did not incorporate any of the proposed improvements and 
clarifications that I circulated to the authors - not even the spelling 
corrections or the (I believe necessary) statement that "This specification 
will not make breaking changes to OpenID Connect 1.0".



My proposed version is attached.  I would appreciate it you would resubmit the 
charter with these corrections incorporated.  After that, I will support the 
formation of the working group.



                         Thank you,

The enclosed Work Group Charter is being sent to the Specs Council for review 
in anticipation of chartering the Group.



It is best have this activity under the foundation IPR as soon as possible.
