Subject: Re: [xri] XRD trusted discovery workflow
As for David's comment: If I remember EAUT correctly, it's a layer before any OpenID discovery would start, and would simply transform an email address into a URL (on which then to perform discovery). In fact, it is orthogonal to OpenID - you can use EAUT to transform an email address into a URL for all sorts of purposes, only one of which is OpenID discovery.
So putting a resource map as a direct child element of <XRD> and using that to get the meta data for the email URI would be equivalent to EAUT - putting the resource map inside the <Service> element of <Type> http://specs.openid.net/auth/2.0/server would not.
Now I don't know whether equivalence with EAUT is something to strive for here...
Dirk.
