(d) A clear English-language summary of the specification; XRD (Extensible Resource Descriptor) defines a simple generic format for describing resources. Resource descriptor documents provide machine-readable information about resources (resource metadata) for the purpose of promoting interoperability. They also assist in interacting with unknown resources that support known interfaces. (e) A statement regarding the relationship of this specification to similar work of other OASIS TCs or other standards developing organizations; XRD 1.0 is a much simplified version of the XRDS 2.0 [1] OASIS document format. It is fully aligned with the IETF Web Linking RFC [2] , borrowing much from the ATOM format [3] <link> element. XRD has a similar purpose as POWDER [4] from the W3C, but is significantly simpler and optimized for identity and service discovery use cases. It also has some potential overlap with ISO 13250 (Topic Maps) [5], but is much simpler and more appropriate for new web services development. XRD 1.0 is being used by the OASIS WS-Calendar specification [6] proposal, as well as the IETF host-meta proposal [7].
