It looks like we're > specifying an annotation of authentication meta-data. Further, could someone elaborate on these requirements? For example, are there any existing products which are exemplary of the annotation or meta-data we'd standardize through this working group? For example, if I had to speculate, I think there are QoS issues that could be specified using an annotation, such as Site supports personalization Site supports mutual auth Site supports ZKPP derived session key Site lexical password format requirements Proof of mutual auth How and where to show personalization proof Is this the intended direction? - Jeff
