Subject: [OAUTH-WG] Note to early adopters of draft-hammer-oauth-v2-mac-token

I am in the midst of editing a new version which includes a few breaking changes such at header attribute name changes ('token' to 'id', 'signature' to 'mac') as well as a new attribute ('issuer' to indicate the host:port where the credentials were issues - in OAuth, the host and post of the authorization server). The normalized request string is also changing (adding the issuer value).

These are all changed in an early revision, so all of this can still change.

I just wanted to give people the heads up that this is coming in a couple of weeks and that if you have deployed the draft or plan to, that you will need to make these changes on both client and server.

Apologies for any issues this might cause, but this draft is not yet stable.
