Here is an example XRDS capability document:

http://openid.net/signon/1.0 http://www.myopenid.com/server http://smoker.myopenid.com/ http://openid.net/signon/1.0 http://www.livejournal.com/openid/server.bml http://www.livejournal.com/users/frank/ http://lid.netmesh.org/sso/2.0 http://mylid.net/liddemouser http://lid.netmesh.org/sso/1.0

If this XRDS document was returned, using one of the listed mechanisms, for a URL, it would express the following information:

  • The URL is a Yadis identity URL.
  • This URL supports the OpenID protocol, through two servers and two delegates.
  • This URL supports version 1.0 and version 2.0 of the LID protocol, with a delegate.
  • The owner of this identity URL prefers to sign-on using their LiveJournal account and the OpenID protocol (priority 10). If that is not possible (e.g. because a relying party does not support OpenID, or because the LiveJournal server is unavailable), the owner would like to use the LID URL http://mylid.net/liddemouser (priority 20), followed by the MyOpenID service (priority 50).

Famous quotes containing the word documents:

    “The American Constitution, one of the few modern political documents drawn up by men who were forced by the sternest circumstances to think out what they really had to face instead of chopping logic in a university classroom.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
