David,<div><br></div><div>Couple of questions I have.</div><div><br></div><div>1) If "OpeniD Connect" is about OAuth 2.0 why use the name OpenID at all? What has OpenID got to do with OAuth 2.0? Why not call it "OAuth Connect"?</div>
<div><br></div><div>2) I thought OpenID was about "Federated Identity". On the other hand OAuth 2.0 is about "Delegated Identity". Are you dumping the idea of "Federated Identity" once and for all for OpenID?</div>
<div><br></div><div>3) My apologies for asking such blunt questions. I will appreciate your answers for this. And if you have a good answer I will be your no 1 supporter.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you so much,</div><div>

The past few months I've had a bunch of one on one conversations with a lot of different people – including many of folks on this list – about ways to build a future version of OpenID on top of OAuth 2.0. Back in March when I wrote a draft of OAuth 2.0 I mentioned it as one of my future goals as well (<a href="http://daveman692.livejournal.com/349384.html" target="_blank">http://daveman692.livejournal.com/349384.html</a>).<div>
<br></div><div>Basically moving us to where there's a true technology stack of TCP/IP -> HTTP -> SSL -> OAuth 2.0 -> OpenID -> (all sorts of awesome APIs). Not just modernizing the technology, but also focusing on solving a few of the key "product" issues we hear time and time again.<div>
<br></div><div>I took the past few days to write down a lot of these ideas and glue them together. Talked with Chris Messina who thought it was an interesting idea and decided to dub it "OpenID Connect" (see <a href="http://factoryjoe.com/blog/2010/01/04/openid-connect/" target="_blank">http://factoryjoe.com/blog/2010/01/04/openid-connect/</a>). And thanks to Eran Hammer-Lahav and Joseph Smarr for some help writing bits of it!</div>
<div><br></div><div>So, a modest proposal that I hope gets the conversation going again. <a href="http://openidconnect.com/" target="_blank">http://openidconnect.com/</a></div><div><div><br></div><font color="#888888"><div>
