Hi Nathan,

very good questions, please find my answers inline.

AFAIK, the WLCG WG added the wlcg. prefix as a namespace notation,
albeit not a formal one, to avoid collisions. All that has been done on
the assumption that no IANA registration would be considered as on
option in the near future.

Yes, my bad, actually it is meant to be ePSA. We were also considering a
way to shorten the names to save some bytes.

Let me add one detail: as far as I understand it, in the RFC 7519
collision-resistant claim names are defined in a namespace such as
domain names, OIDs, UUID based URNs, etc. So, basically any namespace
with either an authority or that is collision-resistant by nature, as
UUIDs. IMO string prefixes such as "eduperson_" do not fall in this
category.
