Attribute Exchange 2.0

There are a lot of systems that use URN to reference LDAP stores etc.

I don't thing that govenment and other communitys are going to change  
overnight.

I also think that having derefrencable claims/attributes/assertions is  
a good thing.

If we used common URL for them it would make life sooo much easier.

If we had mappings between them it would improve things as well.

If we could agree on a basic set for AX that would be wonderful.

So one question is should the AX attribute URI be inside or outside  
the OIDF.

If outside then where?
