[wsia] Possible addition to WSIA

[Anders Rundgren <anders.rundgren@telia.com>]

Hi,
I'm a newcomer on this list and do not plan to become a member of the
TC due to time and resource-constraints.  But I will read messages and
occasionally send some input.

I have been working with upgrading the OBI (Open Buying on the Internet)
standard to use Web Services.  During that process we stumbled over
a solution that quite a few others seem to have done as well.  A DNS-based
distributed WS-Registry system.  In the following document you will find
how it works and in particular page #3 applies to interactive Web Services:

This is a key piece of an input proposal to an OASIS on-line payment
TC that may get off the ground this fall, although it has many other
applications as well.

In case you are interested in the on-line payment TC or actually just in
trying out the proposed mechanism, the following is a good starting point:

Dear Payment-professional,

In case you have some 10 minutes of your precious time to spare, 
I suggest that you to tryout an on-line payment-system combining
VISA's 3D Secure, MasterCards' SPA, similar local systems in
Europe and Asia, as well as NACHA's Project ACTION.

The .PAY scheme is currently serving as an "input specification"
to a possible future OASIS on-line payment standards effort.

Enjoy!
