Hi Rex, the document <draft-ietf-oauth-v2-http-mac-05> has been superseded by the PoP work (which was subsequently split into various other documents).
That, however, does not mean that the content is dead. The mechanism for the authorization server to convey the symmetric key to the client is now documented in <draft-ietf-oauth-pop-key-distribution>. The high level description / overview is now documented in <draft-ietf-oauth-pop-architecture>. The actual mechanism for the client to apply the key to the request to the resource server is now documented in <draft-ietf-oauth-signed-http-request>. While < draft-ietf-oauth-signed-http-request> today is different to the mechanism described in <draft-ietf-oauth-v2-http-mac-05> it also has to be said that it is the weakest document in the entire document set at the moment. So, there is still a chance to incorporate your design requirements into the appropriate parts of the work since the work is still in progress. It would be good to know what your requirements/interests are.
