Taking into account that the authors of the attribute-properties are  
from sxip.com and the given spec is dated August 2006 and axschema.org  
is also a 'service from sxip' and the domain was registered in 2007, I  
believe axschema.org is 'newer and better'.

That's a problem than needs to be addressed, true.

We're doing internal testing with python-openid and attribute exchange  
and we've built our sreg support around the conventions on axschema.org.

Anyone knows public RP-s out in the wild that do one of:
1. use ax
2. make use of update_url
3. use the OP to store attributes
4. use ax instead of sreg to get sreg data

Now that Yahoo is on board and pushing for all those shiny OpenID 2.0  
bits and pieces, tackling AX could be the next big thing to work on..
