Hi Dave, I don't know whether the WG has yet decided whether there will be options and alternatives (i.e. whether sending of claims/headers will be mandatory, optional or forbidden) - so we don't yet know whether there will be an "if" :) But, if there will be an "if", 4424bis needs to describe how to correctly handle the different options and alternatives.

Alternatives and options make specifications more complex and often introduce potential non-determinacies. So the 'if' that you cite is not a small matter. In practical terms, the 'if' means that verifiers must be able to parse json as well as encode it. > Also, whatever headers we include, I assume the receiver should be able > to parse them. > > But, parsing JSON is not a difficult thing to do, and there are > available libraries for those who don't want to implement the parser > themselves. Just to make sure this sub-thread retains its context: I did not comment on the choice of JSON/JWT in the actual review. It's not an irrational or horrible choice. But it does add overhead. It adds it to the effort needed to understand the specifications. And it adds it to the software. (It might also add it to the execution of the software, but I suspect that is, at worst, a negligible difference here.) One of the more deceptive parts of writing standards is the seduction of "is not a difficult thing to do". In most cases where that sort of comment is offered, it is quite true. The problem is with incremental complexities. A not-difficult here; a not-difficult there... They really do mount up. By way of example, having to send the reader off to become proficient in two additional specifications is not a small increment in developmental overhead, especially when those specification have no natural -- ie, pre-occurring -- relevance to the current work. d/ -- Dave Crocker Brandenburg InternetWorking bbiw.net
