Re: [webpayments] PROPOSAL: The Web Payments browser API should not support the collection of shipping information through API calls (#63)

@bifurcation,

> Nonetheless, these proposals are still dealing with authentication, so they're still very distinct from what the CG has been talking about.

I agree that the CG is doing something different from the Web Authentication group. The CG work is about verifiable claims/attributes. This is a layer above the FIDO/Web Authentication work because it has to do with what is out of scope for that group (e.g. multi-origin credentials/federated identity/etc.), but that doesn't mean it has no relation to authentication, e.g. did entity A really make claim B about entity C?

The two groups are doing different things at different layers, but both see the Credential Management API as a potential fit (and the CG has built a demo that shows that fit).
