[Openid-specs-ab] Call for Adoption for the OpenID Connect Key Binding Specification

[Kristina Yasuda]

I do *not *support adoption of this draft for the reasons that have been
listed by Pieter, Aaron, Justin, Brian, Andrii and Ralph.

Key bound ID Tokens using OIDC is where Microsoft and few other companies
have started when implementing Verifiable Credentials and OpenID for
Verifiable Credential Issuance 1.0 is where all that implementation
experience has led. I don't think there is a need to reinvent a wheel when
there already is a well-tested final (!) protocol that can be used for this
use case.

It is also concerning that this call for adoption happened without the
topic being mentioned in the DCP WG even once. I am sure DCP WG members
would be happy to help and point out extension points in VCI 1.0 that can
be leveraged, if needed.

Best,
Kristina
