Vote for Final OpenID Connect Specifications and Implementer's Drafts is Open

Please vote now at URL TBD.  The vote is open between February 4 and February 25, 2014.

The OpenID Connect Working Group recommends approval of the following specifications as Final OpenID Specifications:

  *   OpenID Connect Core<http://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0-17.html> - Defines the core OpenID Connect functionality: authentication built on top of OAuth 2.0 and the use of Claims to communicate information about the End-User.
  *   OpenID Connect Discovery<http://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-discovery-1_0-21.html> - Defines how Relying Parties dynamically discover information about OpenID Providers.
  *   OpenID Connect Dynamic Client Registration<http://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-registration-1_0-23.html> - Defines how Relying Parties dynamically register with OpenID Providers.
  *   OAuth 2.0 Multiple Response Type Encoding<http://openid.net/specs/oauth-v2-multiple-response-types-1_0-11.html> - Defines several specific new OAuth 2.0 response types.

The working group also recommends approval of the following specifications as OpenID Implementer's Drafts:

  *   OpenID Connect Session Management<http://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-session-1_0-18.html> - Defines how to manage OpenID Connect sessions, including logout functionality.
  *   OAuth 2.0 Form Post Response Mode<http://openid.net/specs/oauth-v2-form-post-response-mode-1_0-02.html> - Defines how to return OAuth 2.0 Authorization Response parameters (including OpenID Connect Authentication Response parameters) using HTML form values that are auto-submitted by the User Agent using HTTP POST.

A Final Specification provides intellectual property protections to implementers of the specification and is not subject to further revision. An Implementer's Draft is a stable version of a specification also providing intellectual property protections, but that is subject to further revision.

The 60 day public review period for the specification drafts was previously announced<http://openid.net/2013/12/20/review-of-proposed-final-openid-connect-specifications-and-implementers-drafts/> in accordance with the OpenID Foundation IPR policies and procedures.  As also announce there, for the convenience of members, voting is opening two weeks before the close of the review period and will continue until a week after the review period.
