OK, looping in Chuck, Luke, and Brian.

Do you all remember the discussion we had a few months ago about
having the user-agent profile return a verification code in the
fragment?  The middle of the discussion thread is here:
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/oauth/current/msg02680.html

Do any of you have deployment experience with that feature yet?  There
is a proposal to drop it from the spec due to lack of deployment
experience.

I don't think we're going to end up using it, we're going to lean more
on HTML 5 instead.

Cheers,
Brian
