It was the the claim that /.well-known/void is "a standard" that I was
surprised by. It's the sort of thing that could easily be on a Rec
track
somewhere, I just wasn't aware of it.
Sorry if I somehow gave the impression that VoID is a W3C
Recommendation. I would consider it as a de-facto standard in the
Linked Data community. Formally, though it is a W3C Note, yes.
Cheers,
Michael

Is it?
Yes, I think that RFC5785 [1] can be considered a standard. Unless
you
want to suggest that RFCs are sorta not real standards :P
:)
I'm aware that /.well-known is standardized in RFC5785.

FWIW I'm perfectly happy with VoID's current status as an Interest
Group
note.

There was me thinking it was a Interest Group Note.
Is there a newer version than:

?
