Simplifying authentication #102

Open Abbe98 opened 1 year ago

Abbe98 commented 1 year ago

Currently the specification borrows authentication methods from the OpenAPI spec. While this gives a lot of flexibility it creates a major implementation burden to clients wishing to support all spec-compatible endpoints.

I would suggest that the number of authentication methods is limited to lower the burden for clients while harmonizing server implementations. Maybe bring it down to two methods?
