Melvin,

 

 

This actually looks pretty good!



PEJ: Great!


Re:

The media type used for the JSON Resource Descriptor (JRD) is
"application/json"

Doesnt JRD have it's own content type?

See Eran's comment:

http://hueniverse.com/2010/05/jrd-the-other-resource-descriptor/#comment-812

"For now I'm using application/json, but application/xrd+json is also
possible."

Maybe something like application/jrd+json would be best?

 

PEJ: Nothing has ever been defined and RFC 6415 says JRD is
"application/json".  Should somebody (note "somebody") define something
specific for JRD?  I didn't see any other +json definitions and I know
people expressed concern with that previously (not related to WF).  If we
defined such a thing, it should either be application/jrd or
application/jrd+json.
