[uf-discuss] Auto Discovery of XFN

[Robert Mark White]

 I have a homepage that I use as my OpenId URL.  I have the url of my
homepage delegated to a OpenId provider.
In the header of that homepage I have setup some auto discovery links in
html.  I believe this aids in the discovery of my information. I really do
want a portable social network but I hope to bypass the need to "scrape" my
information off of a social web site by providing a link as to where the
information I want to provide is already.  
For example,
 
For purely humorous and historical purposes I have the link below.
<meta name="ICBM" content="39.518869, -104.757254" /> 
The link below I use for auto discovery of my foaf file.
<link rel="media" type="application/rdf+xml" title="FOAF"
href="http://example.com/foaf.xml" /> 
I know this link works as the Semantic Radar add on in Foxfire finds foaf
files all over the net for me.
The link below I use for auto discovery of my avatar/pavatar.
<link rel="pavatar" type="image/jpg"
href="http://example.com/images/771518_1aa9fe4be6_s.jpg">
<link rel="avatar" type="image/jpg"
href="http://example.com/images/771518_1aa9fe4be6_s.jpg">
 
The link below is the link I use for my vCard/hCard.
<link rel="media" type="text/directory" title="vCard"
href="http://example.com/vcard.html" />
 
I am only guessing but I am pretty sure that the link about is correct one.
 
I also have a page on my website with my xfn links but I am unable to figure
out the correct information for the auto discovery of it.
 
<link rel="media" type="?/xfn" title="XFN"
href="http://example.com/xfn.html" />
 
Can someone please enlighten me as to the correct values for this type link
above?

Sincerely yours,
