RE: [xri] <uri>element in <link> of XRD

[Eran Hammer-Lahav <eran@hueniverse.com>]

It is (a) which does not guarantee that the descriptor of the resource identified by the <URI> will have the value of the <URI> as its subject. I know Brian has a similar requirement for his trust proposal.

Since this seems like a trust-related requirement, I will wait until we have a more complete trust solution to comment on that.

We still have an open question if the <ResourceType> element at the <XRD> level should be called ResourceType or Type. At the <Link> level we agreed on ResourceType.
