I'm requesting clarification on how these registrations look like. The
introduction is giving the impression that the server is managing
registrations as a "directory of resources", while the remaining draft
is giving more the impression of a "directory of links", which is
contradicted by the interop spec that again is giving the impression
of a "directory of resources" but not consistently. In particular, I'm
confused by the two examples from the interop spec that Jim tried to
translate [1] to CoRAL, as these don't look like something a server
would ever generate and thus are not very illuminative when translated.
