[OpenID] Building on the OpenID PAPE specification

[Dick Hardt]

I did not state that PAPE-AM required something vendor specific, I  
stated if the goal was to get OPs to use something vendor specific.  
Per my earlier post, I don't see why you can't use PAPE and your own  
policy.

If there is a point to this thread, I am missing it. Not sure why you  
continue to choose to misinterpret what I am trying to say. Can we  
move to something constructive?
