Thinking about this some more, there is one IPR issue that we need to address 
before publication.  This specification is a derivative work from the OpenID 
Connect Dynamic Registration specification 
http://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-registration-1_0.html.  Large portions 
of the text were copied wholesale from that spec to this one, so that the two 
would be compatible.  (This is good thing – not a bad thing.)

This is easy to address from an IPR perspective – simply acknowledge that this 
spec is a derivative work and provide proper attribution.  The OpenID copyright 
in the spec at 
http://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-registration-1_0.html#Notices allows for 
this resolution.  It says:


Copyright (c) 2014 The OpenID Foundation.

The OpenID Foundation (OIDF) grants to any Contributor, developer, implementer, 
or other interested party a non-exclusive, royalty free, worldwide copyright 
license to reproduce, prepare derivative works from, distribute, perform and 
display, this Implementers Draft or Final Specification solely for the purposes 
of (i) developing specifications, and (ii) implementing Implementers Drafts and 
Final Specifications based on such documents, provided that attribution be made 
to the OIDF as the source of the material, but that such attribution does not 
indicate an endorsement by the OIDF.
Let’s add the reference and acknowledgment in the next version.
