Standard : 2.2 : "two main paths" means other flow can be used , or not ?

[hideki nara]

[[http://openid.bitbucket.org/openid-connect-standard-1_0.html#protocol_flows| Dec 22, 2011 version of Draft 07]] says about Grant flows like this:

" ......

2.2. Protocol Flows

Authorization Requests follow two main paths to obtain Access Tokens and ID Tokens, the Implicit Flow and the Authorization Code Flow. .... "

Other flows like Client Credentials flow with "[[http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-jones-oauth-jwt-bearer-02.txt | JSON Web Token (JWT) Bearer Token Profiles for OAuth 2.0]]" can be allowed or not ?

[John Bradley]

Yes the idea is that other flows like "JSON Web Token (JWT) Bearer Token Profiles for OAuth 2.0" can be used.

A extension document probably needs to be written for each additional flow.

[Michael Jones]

John will probably close this as "wontfix" pending further clarifying discussions with Hideki. We don't anticipate any spec changes resulting from this issue.

[hideki nara]

Thank you for your clarification. We'll think of an extension document for our experimental project.

[John Bradley]

Thanks I will close then.
