There is strong community consensus (not specifically WG consensus) that we need more than one (browser-based) method for obtaining tokens. During the chartering process people expressed the need to support mobile or other devices in which a browser is not readily available or a valid UI choice.

My question is, should we publish a draft for each method or reposition the web-delegation draft to a more general draft about methods for obtaining tokens? This means we will have one spec for how to authenticate and another spec for how to authorize.
