Would these types be well-known and standardized across CP's, or would they only have meaning within a given CP?

Jim,
I have corrected and added important detail to this section http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/IdAS_Registries_Proposal#IdASContextRegistry
The XRDS
has a sub-element. It indicates the type of service at the endpoint. As an example, I have now included the OpenID value on the wiki page. This type notion is highly relevant to the discussion on this thread. It is a description at one level of abstraction higher than the ContextFactory class name (or Eclipse/OSGI extension id). I could envision that a ContextFactory could support a \'getServiceTypes\' method that would return to IdASRegistry the set of values that it can handle. Then, the IdASRegistry would be responsible for selecting a ContextFactory based on the value associated with the ContextId in question.
