Hi!

> At the IETF77 meeting there was talk about removing the first name / last name assumptions from the avatar identifier, but it looks like that conversation didn't carry over to the mailing list. Does anyone know exactly which I-Ds (and which sections) reference avatar identifiers as first_name+last_name?

I still don't really understand why you aren't levering existing
specification like OpenSocial/PortableContacts:

http://opensocial-resources.googlecode.com/svn/spec/1.0/Social-Data.xml#Person
http://portablecontacts.net/draft-spec.html

Shouldn't they have already most of the things defined and you would
gain additional interoperability by using it?
