Hi all,

AX = Attribute Exchange Extension 
(http://openid.net/specs/openid-attribute-exchange-1_0.html)
SREG = Simple Registration Extension 
(http://openid.net/specs/openid-simple-registration-extension-1_1-01.html)

We're writing an AX extension for our OP. We need to support SREG 
because it appears that most consumers/OPs support it. In our Consumer 
we'll also need to support both as the OP may not support AX....

Are they meant to co-exist? Is the consensus that the OpenID community 
head for AX and "kind of abandon" SREG in favour of AX or should we all 
aim to support both for ever more?

Happy Christmas everybody:)

tom
