[Paul Lindner <li...@inuus.com>]

I know there are plenty of people here that are interested in OAuth.  Please
see the proposal for a new Java OAuth library.

Hi all guys, Paul very nice to meet you :)
at the era I started writing the first version of the Amber proposal,
my Cocoon3 mates Reinhard Poetz and Steven Dolg were interested, I'll
ping them to get them involved.
Quick question: can anyone tell me please where I can share the first
draft of the proposal? Thanks in advance!
Simo
