So there are some of both. How treacherous is the migration path from SWD to WebFinger, for example, in case consensus is to develop and move forward with the latter?

(I know of several more who’ve built it as well but haven’t chosen to make their interop test results public yet.) There are likely other implementations I’m unaware of. -- Mike From: oauth-boun...@ietf.org<mailto:oauth-boun...@ietf.org> [mailto:oauth-boun...@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Blaine Cook Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2012 3:54 PM To: Tim Bray Cc: oauth@ietf.org<mailto:oauth@ietf.org> WG; apps-disc...@ietf.org<mailto:apps-disc...@ietf.org> Subject: Re: [OAUTH-WG] [apps-discuss] Web Finger vs. Simple Web Discovery (SWD) That's a tricky question - maybe one google can help answer? There are a bunch of projects using webfinger, including status.net<http://status.net>, ostatus in general, diaspora, unhosted, freedombox(?), and I'm sure others, but I have no idea how that translates into actual users or profiles. Gmail, aol, and yahoo all put up webfinger endpoints, but there hasn't been much movement, I think due to the chicken and egg nature of adoption around decentralized tools. b.
