Hi Praveen.
I think I have missed one interation in the chart 3, and
little be confused about terms authentication and
authorization in the mail text.
I've updated the chart to indicate end-user authentication
and end-user permitting Consumer to access its data will be
done sapaletely in usecase 3.
In case 3, SP is regarded to be a ``data authority'' and OP
is ``identity authority'' in same manner. I think it is not
unordinary situation where a data authority delegate user
authentication to an other identity provider, especially the
IdP provides special authentication methods such as Vidoop's
one.
