Attribute Exchange Schema site

[Dick Hardt]

Hi Rowan

We will be releasing a tweaked version of the Attribute Exchange spec  
tomorrow. Adds a simple way to support requested and receiving  
multiple values for the same type.

The old properties list is here: (there is a link to archives at the  
bottom of the specs page on OpenID.net)
	http://openid.net/specs/openid-attribute-properties-list-1_0-01.html

We now a document for each property that has RDF so that it is both  
programatically readable and human readable. Just need to decide the  
domain to put them!

The Attribute Type model is such that anyone with a domain can define  
new attributes. No need for central control. We created a set of what  
we thought were common attributes, but that does not mean anyone has  
to use them.

Glad to hear someone is spending more time implementing that  
discussing. ;-)
