[Openid-specs-ab] Spec URL

I think it will be "http://openid.net/specs/connect/1.0/#issuer"
instead of "http://openid.net/specs/connect/1.0/issuer". 

By doing so,
clicking on the link will make the browser jump to the intended section.


The reason I raised this issue is because it is very closely related
to the spec publishing point which enables the above behavior, which we
would be doing in next couple of days. 

So even if we are not using
"http://openid.net/specs/connect-userinfo/1.0/" in the protocol, we need
to decide on it. 

Do we have consensus on using "-" as the delimiter
for the sub-specs and bindings? Or do we want "/"? 

By the way, most
referenced URL will be that of HTTP Redirect Binding. Is it OK to be 


http://openid.net/specs/connect-http-redirect-binding/1.0/ 

or do we
want it to be


http://openid.net/specs/connect/http-redirect-binding/1.0/ ? 

Now that
I have encountered with this example, it just occurs to me now that the
later seems to be more consistent in the sense that "/" represents the
hierarchic relationship and "-" is just a replacement for a space, but I
can live either way.

either-way, but Option 2 seems a little more attractive in
