That's a confusing answer Eve. Is it in the spec or pointed to from the spec? 

I think there is consensus that there are enough use cases that signatures need 
to be spec'ed -- the question is if the signature spec is in core or a separate 
spec.

For people that don't need signatures, having them separate keeps the core spec 
simpler. Having a separate spec enables other groups to reuse the signature 
mechanism without confusing their readers with the rest of the OAuth spec.
