Description:
As raised by Bryan:

Under "4.2.1 Protect Personal Information Used in Transactions":

The earlier version (20080522) had guidance on methods of information security other than HTTPS in the paragraph.

The available methods of such exchange may be unclear to developers, and the considerations around the various techniques would benefit from further discussion. If anything I would like to see us *expand* the description of sending secure information as URL parameters and POST (form) data, or other methods as called for in the current draft note.

->-> Adam Comments: Agreed. We have an editors note that we want to explore other techniques and recommendations. We should follow up.
