[Openid-specs-igov] Need for public clients in iGov OAuth 2.0 Profile?

Tom and I, as editors of the iGov OAuth 2.0 Profile, are asking if there are any implementations that require public clients.

Public clients are currently excluded, in particular, because all clients MUST authenticate to the authorization server, which public clients cannot.

We currently are planning to align with the FAPI 2.0 Security Profile which does not allow public clients.

Please provide input by Friday April 11 if you have an opinion.

Kelley (and Tom)
