Blaine,

Your issues were not ignored, but I do not think there was consensus one way or the other on them. Your points were:
1) Recommendation to use JSON only
2) A question about what the JSON format would look like
3) Direct vs. indirect queries (i.e., whether to use resource parameter)

I replied to each of these and others commented on parts, too.  My opinions:

1) Given that RFC 6415 already specifies use of XML and is only months old, I hesitate to demand that only XML be used. Further, it's trivial for the server to do both. The client will be able to use whatever it prefers. I can be convinced to drop XML, but I think we should make this decision carefully and with everyone in agreement. 2) I suggested we use JRD since it is defined. Was there any disagreement on that? 3) This issue is a point where there was clear division. The OpenID Connect team wants to be able to issue a single query and get a reply. You had an interest to use a static server. I investigated how we could do both. If one used Apache, for example, one could build a static site and still support the resource URI. Here's a couple of ways to do it: http://www.packetizer.com/webfinger/server.html (using either .htaccess or the global config file). What cannot be accomodated is the "rel" parameter, but I'd guess static sites will not produce voluminous results, anyway.

So, it's not accurate to say your issues were ignored. We simply did not have strong consensus one way or the other. There were strong opinions on (3), so I tried to find a solution that might be acceptable. We may need more discussion on all of these points, of course.

I disagree that the current spec is a good starting point - the issues I've raised have been ignored, and the spec is now much more complicated from both sides of the implementation fence.

    Walter,

    I'm not sure what the full set of issues will be, but I only have
    a couple of small edits queued for -05 at present (one being
    "template" should be "href" in the example at the end of 4.2 that
    you pointed out to me privately).  We've already worked through a
    number of issues to get to this point, so there may not be a lot
    of changes needed.  I'll not dismiss the possibility that there
    are editorial issues, but I hope we've resolved most of the
    technical details.

    We probably still need to have the discussion of keeping CORS and
    what additions are needed to the security section.  We've made a
    few changes there already, but I'm not sure if it still fully
    addresses some of the privacy concerns.

    I also support this draft as a way forward for the discussion
    that I think captures the essence of both philosophies.

    If such basis is agreed what are the major pending issues?

        The above-named draft has been offered as the recommended
        path forward in terms of converging on a single document to
        advance through appsawg.  The conversation I saw this week in
        that regard has seemed mostly positive.

        Please review it, or at least the diff, and indicate your
        support or objection on apps-disc...@ietf.org
        <mailto:apps-disc...@ietf.org> to adopting this one as the
        common path forward. We would like to make a decision about
        which one to begin advancing in the next week or two.

        Have a good weekend!
