> Background Information:
>
> OpenID has always been focused on how to enable user-authentication within
> the browser.  Over the last year, OAuth has been developed to allow
> authorization either from within a browser, desktop software, or mobile
> devices.  Obviously there has been interest in using OpenID and OAuth
> together allowing a user to share their identity as well as grant a Relying
> Party access to an OAuth protected resource in a single step.  A small group
> of people have been working on developing an extension to OpenID which makes
> this possible in a collaborative fashion within
> http://code.google.com/p/step2/.  This small project includes a draft spec
> and Open Source implementations which the proposers would like to finalize
> within the OpenID Foundation.

> Working Group Name:
> OpenID OAuth Hybrid Working Group
>
>
> Purpose:
> Produce a standard OpenID extension to the OpenID Authentication protocol
> that provides a mechanism to embed an OAuth approval request into an OpenID
> authentication request to permit combined user approval. The extension
> addresses the use case where the OpenID Provider and OAuth Service Provider
> are the same service. To provide good user experience, it is important to
> present a combined authentication and authorization screen for the two
> protocols.
>
>
> Scope:
> Standardize the draft Hybrid Protocol (
> http://step2.googlecode.com/svn/spec/openid_oauth_extension/drafts/0/openid_oauth_extension.html)
> as an official OpenID Extension describing how to combine an OpenID
> authentication request with the approval of an OAuth request token.
>
>
> Anticipated Contributions:
> Draft specification referenced above and various text contributions as more
> developers implement it.
>
>
> Proposed List of Specifications:
> OpenID OAuth Extension 1.0. Spec completion by Q4 2008.
>
>
> Anticipated audience or users of the work:
>  - OpenID Providers and Relying Parties
>  - OAuth Consumers and Service Providers
>  - Implementers of OpenID Providers and Relying Parties
>
>
> Language in which the WG will conduct business:
> English.
>
>
> Method of work:
> E-mail discussions on the working group mailing list and working group
> conference calls.
>
>
> Basis for determining when the work of the WG is completed:
> The work will be completed once it is apparent that maximal consensus on
> the protocol proposal has been achieved within the working group, consistent
> with the purpose and scope.
