What more would it be that couldn't be considered "identity"? We're just talking about claims about people/things in order to distinguish them from other people/things. That's pretty generic already -- and it speaks directly to "identity". I don't think we want to expand the scope beyond that to encompass, for example, payment or other security/authorization tokens because that only causes the work to bleed into other areas where work is already being done and is appropriately decoupled from identity. > > HTML has evolved. Should we plan for this to evolve too? In what way? -- Dave Longley CTO Digital Bazaar, Inc. http://digitalbazaar.com
