•       Messages – Defines the messages that are used by OpenID Connect.

•       Standard – Defines an HTTP binding for the Messages, for both Relying Parties and OpenID Providers.

•       Discovery – Defines how Relying Parties dynamically discover information about OpenID Providers.

•       Dynamic Registration – Defines how Relying Parties dynamically register with OpenID Providers.

•       Session Management – Defines how to manage OpenID Connect sessions, including logout functionality.

•       Multiple Response Type Encoding – Registers OAuth 2.0 “response_type” values used by OpenID Connect.

An Implementer’s Draft is a stable version of a specification providing intellectual property protections to implementers of the specification.  This note starts the 45 day public review period for the specification drafts in accordance with the OpenID Foundation IPR policies and procedures.  This review period will end on Monday, July 22, 2013.  Unless issues are identified during the review that the working group believes must be addressed by revising the drafts, this review period will be followed by a seven day voting period during which OpenID Foundation members will vote on whether to approve these drafts as OpenID Implementer’s Drafts.
