+1 on the requirements.

There are two criteria that I would consider to be essential requirements for 
any resulting general-purpose discovery specification:

1.  Being able to always discover per-user information with a single GET

2.  JSON should be required and it should be the only format required 
(simplicity and ease of deployment/adoption)

SWD already meets those requirements.  If the resulting spec meets those 
requirements, it doesn't matter a lot whether we call it WebFinger or Simple 
Web Discovery, but I believe that the requirements discussion is probably the 
most productive one to be having at this point - not the starting point 
document.

Subject: Re: [apps-discuss] [OAUTH-WG] Web Finger vs. Simple Web Discovery (SWD)

By all means people should correct me if they think I'm wrong about this, but 
so far from monitoring the discussion there seems to be general support for 
focusing on WebFinger and developing it to meet the needs of those who have 
deployed SWD, versus the opposite.

Does anyone want to argue the opposite?
