[Marketing] OpenID Connect

[David Recordon]

Hey Dick,
I could see a path where OpenID bolts discovery onto the front of OAuth WRAP
and then OpenID itself becomes a common set of parameters exchanged within
the user authorization flow of WRAP.  A consumer could also get a WRAP
access token in addition to identity information (you're the one who told me
a few years ago that an identifier is just another attribute and not
something special).  If it's happening over SSL, a lot of the key exchange
stuff goes away.  Already today OpenID uses a plain text association when
being run over SSL.
