Basic - 3.1. What is conversion? What benefit comes if it will be increased?

[hideki nara]

Minor issue.

Draft 13 says:

"... To increase conversion, a site may elect to only request a subset of the information from the UserInfo Endpoint. ...."

I'd like to know more about "conversion".

I think that this paragraph describes about End User and UserInfo Endpoint can select claims to be returned to the Client. Is it right?

Conversion is perhaps a marketing term referring to the number of visitors to the site that successfully login.

The lower the barrier to logging in the more people do.

Sometimes asking for too much info from a first time visitor causes them not to login.

How much info the RP asks for needs to be balanced against the number of people logging in.

I will change conversion to successful logins by first time visitors.

John, thank you very much. I got it.

I hope that text writing would be bit clearer.

Same for Standard Draft05 of Sept 30, 2011 ," 4.1. OpenID Connect Scopes".

Changed wording

Minor inconsistency.

Standard(Draft 7,November 3, 2011) :

" ... To increase new account activation, a client may elect to only request a subset of the scopes available for the UserInfo Endpoint. "

Basic(Draft15, October 30, 2011) :

" ... To increase conversion, a site may elect to only request a subset of the information from the UserInfo Endpoint. "
