I agree,  requirements are more important than deciding on the starting document at this point. 

I don't care about the name at all.  The proposals are not wolds apart. 

I suspect if we can agree on the requirements for the number of requests most of the other decisions will fall out of that.

If the resulting spec meets those requirements, it doesn't matter a lot whether we call it WebFinger or Simple Web Discovery, but I believe that the requirements discussion is probably the most productive one to be having at this point - not the starting point document.
