Hi All,

I'm the author of this Perl library for signing OAuth 1.0 requests:
http://search.cpan.org/~timbrody/LWP-Authen-OAuth-1.01/

I've been asked about OAuth 2.0 so have scanned through the spec and
joined this list :-)


The MAC-signing draft section 1.2 refers to "Host:" but I have an HTTP
library that can talk 1.0 or 1.1. I make an HTTP request with URI + form
parameters + extra headers - I don't know if the "Host:" header will
exist. So, can you just refer to the "hostname" and "port"? (Whether
they are in the URI or a Host: header seems orthogonal to OAuth anyway?)


Why do you POST application/x-www-form-urlencoded but get
application/json?

I couldn't find a conclusion to the May 2010 discussions about using
x-www-form-urlencoded vs. json nor a rationale in the spec for using
JSON. Why do I need to add a JSON lexer/parser to my library just to get
key-value pairs that can be represented by form-urlencoded?


All the best,
Tim.
