Here you go:

XDI is a new protocol for describing and sharing data using XRI- 
addressable RDF graphs. The main features of XDI are: the ability to  
link and nest RDF graphs to provide context; full addressability of  
all nodes in the graph at any level of context; representation of XDI  
operations as graph statements so authorization can be built into the  
graph (a feature called XDI link contracts); a compact JSON  
serialization format in addition to XML; and a simple ontology  
language for defining shared semantics using XDI dictionary services.
