Hi Mike,

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 
(minimizing user interface latency for mobile devices, etc.)

Is this a requirement from an OpenID Connect perspective? I'm asking because I think a user is not always the starting point of a discovery process in the more general OAuth case. In my opinion there is a need to discover (1) the authorization server a particular resource server relies on ("www.example.com/webdav" --> "as.example.com" and (2) the properties of this authz server ("as.example.com" --> tokens, authz, revocation endpoints, grant types, ...).

How would this work with SWD or WebFinger?

regards,
Torsten.
