The following may or may not be in scope for this list. Please correct
me if it's not.

I've been helping out some folks who have defined an open format for
cross-application sharing of key-value pairs:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-smith-opentoken

As the document explains, the format is designed primarily for use as an
HTTP cookie or query parameter, but can also be used in other scenarios
that require a compact, application-neutral token.

Would there be interest on this list in formalizing something like
OpenToken?

Peter
