Package Info
------------
PHP library to parse and generate "Extensible Resource Descriptor (XRD) Version 1.0"
files.
XRD files are used for ".well-known/host-meta" files as standardized in
"RFC 6415: Web Host Metadata", as well as in the
"LRDD (Link-based Resource Descriptor Discovery)" files linked from it.
The LRDD XRD files can be used to discover information about users by just their
e-mail address, e.g. the OpenID provider.
This is the foundation of Webfinger, which lets people use their e-mail address
to do OpenID sign in.
The XRD format supercedes the XRDS format defined in XRI 2.0, which is used in
the Yadis communications protocol.
