Definition of the ROLIE Software Descriptor Extension
draft-banghart-sacm-rolie-softwaredescriptor-01
Abstract
This document extends the Resource-Oriented Lightweight Information
Exchange (ROLIE) core to add the information type category and
related requirements needed to support Software Record and Software
Inventory use cases. The 'software-descriptor' information type is
defined as a ROLIE extension. Additional supporting requirements are
also defined that describe the use of specific formats and link
relations pertaining to the new information type.

1. Introduction
This document defines an extension to the Resource-Oriented
Lightweight Information Exchange (ROLIE) protocol to support the
publication of software descriptor information. Software descriptor
information is information that characterizes:
an installable software package, or
information about static software components that may be installed
by a software package or patch.
Software descriptor information includes identifying, versioning,
