Hi John,

It¹s really not that much different than how AX 1.0 is implemented today.

In AX 1.0, the RP tells the OP the aliases to use for each attribute in the
request.

In this proposal, the OP tells the RP which attributes are available, and
the alias to use for each attribute in the OP¹s discovery document.

Allen
