Proposal for discovery of an OpenID session at an OP

[Peter Watkins]

All,

I would appreciate any suggestions on how to put forth suggestions for 
serious consideration, as my last attempt was such a failure.

Was my December proposal** really so bad (or badly written?) as to 
merit no on-list responses whatsoever? One of you was kind enough to 
send a note off-list (thanks!), but I am disappointed in the complete 
lack of responses -- after all, I thought I was outlining a path 
toward solving some problems & concerns raised by a wide variety of 
folks on this list, including Luke Shepard at Facebook, Drummond Reed, 
Dick Hardt, and others.

What does it take for an idea to get some attention around here??

Thanks,

Peter
