Technical Summary
This proposal creates a well-known Web site location for information
like 'robots.txt' and P3P information, any information
that is metadata about the Web site. The
alternative to this proposal is to continue with one-off
well-known names.
Working Group Summary
This is not a WG product. The open discussion focused on
narrow points like the exact characters making up the well-known
name, and on points that can be extended in the future like
standardized file formats for site meta-data.
