In XRD 1.0 we are moving to a link based model.

Hmm . . . I think I understand this. Let me try to re-phrase:

So a users XRD rather than having to specify the openID providers service can point to an openID provider.

The URIs that we currently use describe the service not the provider.

We currently say "here is the vendor's working server", but would like to be able to say "here is the vendor; ask *them* which of their servers is currently up/working".

I think Nat is looking for a link relationship that describes a user pointing to a service providers XRD rather than to the service itself.

We would also like to say "here is an XRD file, maybe not even hosted with the vendor, that tells us where to find the vendor"?
