I don't understand why something so simple of an idea like OAuth should be so difficult and painful to implement. I hate it. We need a different solution, or a better reference implementation.

I spent an hour last night struggling with making OAuth client calls to Google (Picasaweb). I don't think a different solution is needed; I think Google just needs to implement the IETF spec correctly and provide better diagnostics. I don't know if Google started from a reference implementation.
