[OAUTH-WG] Re: AS Metadata client id parameter draft

[Filip Skokan <[e-mail]>]

Hello Nick,

Let me know what you all think.


Back at IETF 121 I presented this related/similar idea:

   - https://youtu.be/_kNpecjcj64?t=6354
   -
   https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/121/materials/slides-121-oauth-sessa-client-id-hint-for-authorization-server-metadata-requests-00

I haven't had a chance to follow up on it since

S pozdravem,
*Filip Skokan*
