We also have URI in use like http://specs.openid.net/auth/2.0/server etc.

I agree with managing the namespace for each spec in a more consistent way.

Can you please reset my password and call me at (425) 985-8916 to tell me the new one.  I need to be able to log in to write content to the http://openid.net/specs/ directory, which when I last did it was at the location /var/www/openid.net/docs/specs.
