Discovery of The Yadis Resource Descriptor
The capability document associated with an identity URL is found either:
- By following a custom HTTP response header called
X-XRDS-Location, - By an equivalent entry in the HTML HEAD section, called
, or - By requesting a special mime type called
application/xrds+xmlwhen performing an HTTP GET on the identity URL.
Developers can choose which of the alternatives to implement, based on factors such as whether they can run software at the identity URL or not.

—Gottlob Frege (1848–1925)
“As the mother of a son, I do not accept that alienation from me is necessary for his discovery of himself. As a woman, I will not cooperate in demeaning womanly things so that he can be proud to be a man. I like to think the women in my son’s future are counting on me.”
—Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)

It is equally important to devise ways and means for aiding the middle-aged and old to reexamine hang-over unscientific doctrines and ideas in the light of recent discovery and research.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
“No, Ernest, don’t talk about action.... It is the last resource of those who know not how to dream.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
