If I recall correctly, it doesn't define the format parameter, just gives one 
fixed value for the SAML flow. Either way, I am suggesting we keep the SAML 
flow out of the spec, keeping just the general assertion flow, with better 
format definition.

Did anyone have a chance to review the proposal I made here?    I have a couple 
of people from the SAML community reviewing it offline, but would welcome 
feedback from this group.   The sample text is attached to this post:

http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/oauth/current/msg01735.html

One specific thing to note - the assertion flow is really appropriate for both 
autonomous and on-behalf-of user flows, so it will take some special editing to 
make that work with the current structure of the intro.

The assertion flow included in the specification doesn't offer enough to
provide interop. Previous discussions ruled out the idea of offering a
single SAML 2.0 based flow.

Proposal: Leave the flow as a generic assertion flow, using SAML 2.0 as an
example, and defining the syntax/values of the format parameter. As long as
the format parameter is well-defined, the rest can be left for
assertion-language-specific specs and implementations.

Needed: Language defining the format parameter in a way which ensures
interop across clients using the same format value (i.e. Registry,
URI-based, etc).
