Fwd: I-D Action:draft-nottingham-site-meta-05.txt

FYI,

This document is currently in IESG Evaluation with a few DISCUSS
issues to be cleared.  One of the ADs asked whether this draft had
been widely reviewed and I wasn't sure it had been posted here though
it has definitely been discussed on HTTPBIS and in W3C lists.  This
draft proposes a namespace for a mechanism that can be useful for
HTTP-based applications, e.g. if it were available and accepted 5-10
years ago, it would have been an alternative for some of the
bootstrapping problems of WebDAV and CalDAV.

See also http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hammer-hostmeta-05 for an
example of use of this namespace.
