Ping Summit
               A week from now
               We discussed whether Edmund can rig a demo for the summit

Johnny Bufu's feedback:

Base64url is defined but not used anywhere.
               Check
UserInfo Endpoint... "returns information about the current user":
               The user who presented the access token
RP is defined as "Client and Resource Servers"
               Fix
UserInfo Endpoint is defined as "protected resource"
               Fix - provided by OP

"ID Token" is referenced but not defined.
               See session spec (and fix multiple definitions)

(Can use introspection endpoint rather than id_token)
               Verify whether it's written down - possibly in the framework spec

response_type: "Acceptable values are code, token, and none." - Is the list complete?
               Intended to be extensible
               Session management defines id_token type as well - add to core
               We are counting on the ability for OAuth to return multiple values
                              Mike will shepherd this at the IETF meeting

"Response values for other requested response_type parameters are returned in the Access Token Endpoint (Need Confirmation)."
               Delete this sentence

Where is the "openid": {...} (JSON) construct from the example defined?
               Delete this example and replace with a correct one
                              John to supply correct example

OAuth 2.0 doesn't define a parameter named "request" that I could find.
               Parameter in the OAuth request

Session Token referenced but not defined
               Is id_token

Pointer should be to Core/Section 3.1.2 instead of 4.1.2.
               Fix

Does session_selection_required correspond to an error in processing the prompt:select_account from a Authorization Request?
               Edmund to recommend how to fix this

"Claims object" not formally defined - reader left to guess/assume it's the same as ""clm" object" described in section 3.1.1 / OpenID Request Object.
               Fix

"RESERVED" is capitalized but not defined by RFC2119
               Fix

What is a (request/response) schema?
               Fix

"See the OpenID Connect Core [OpenID.CC] specification on how to request a different format."
               Edmund to recommend fix

3.Check if the current time is within the validity period.
               Fix - refers to token

Is "User Info API request" the same as a regular request to the UserInfo Endpoint (these are not referred to as APIs before this occurrence)?
               Fix

Claim objects are not formally defined.
               George to look at UserInfo comments
               Including schema comments
               Reference Framework and format parameter from UserInfo spec

[The call continued after the first hour without Mike, who had a hard stop - Nat is taking further notes.]
