I also think it's worthwhile. OAuth2 doesn't provide a way to do a signed-http-request in the way that OAuth1 does. I would definitely like to see this draft make its way to completion, but I don't have the crypto expertise to pick up editing it myself.

I think there is a need for a signed token style OAuth 2 scheme, and MAC fills this niche, although holder-of-key (as yet un-drafted) would also do this nicely. Is MAC going to get picked up and driven to completion?

Do others feel this token style (and security properties) are needed? Or am I alone in this?

    I am stepping down from my role as editor of the MAC token
    specification. I do not intend to participate in this work moving
    forward. I will forward my notes to the next editor if requested.
