Draft -07 represents a major rearrangement of the document. I still have a lot of work to do but wanted to share my progress and get some general feedback. The draft includes a few normative language changes but the main focus is on the document structure and how the architecture is explained.

Changes include:

   o  Removed device profile.
   o  Added verification code support to user-agent flow.
   o  Removed multiple formats support, leaving JSON as the only format.
   o  Changed assertion "assertion_format" parameter to "assertion_type".
   o  Removed "type" parameter from token endpoint.

The spec is now 36 pages, 19 pages shorter than -05.
