I'm fine with that as long as there are no objections from the community. We didn't want to foist this payswarm approach on the community unless it agreed that it was a good path to follow. > also works, not mutually exclusive with the first method -- maybe use > hydra and/or void? It's not mutually exclusive, but we do want to try and nail down the normative text. Which is the MUST here? 1. MUST expose service URLs at .well-known, or 2. MUST expose service URLs via either conneg or <script/> JSON-LD tags in the root HTML document on the domain? Personally, I think we should reject the .well-known approach... because we're going to end up with a plethora of .well-known endpoint URLs and figuring out what REST API services a particular website exposes could end up requiring 20-40 HTTP requests vs. the 1 HTTP request to get the conneg'd root document containing all service endpoints. Thoughts? If you'd agree to it, and there are no objections from the rest of the community, we could just drop the .well-known approach. -- manu -- Manu Sporny (skype: msporny, twitter: manusporny, G+: +Manu Sporny) Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. blog: The Marathonic Dawn of Web Payments http://manu.sporny.org/2014/dawn-of-web-payments/
