- motivated by work with CoS OSF at Johns Hopkins
- developing a "fedora provider" to allow content to be read and written into Fedora by OSF
- Daniel Lamb asked to clarify that fedora would consume OAauth tokens from big name sources like google and such
- yes, basic auth is terrible authenticating through a well-used authentication provider using OAuth would make things cleaner and easier
- want to look at what Claw is doing (beyond basic auth)
- Claw uses a Valve in tomcat (container-based, outside of fedora)
- APIX wasn't an option then, but might make more sense for folks using alternate deployment (or implementation) of Fedora
- want to "put fedora on the internet" (a sadly unusual case these days)
- in the early stages, much investigation remains
