Does this fit with the TC's charter? From XRI TC charter
(http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/xri/charter.php):

"
Scope

The scope of the XRI TC is limited to the definition of the XRI 
identifier scheme, one or more resolution protocols (in particular, 
a generic resolution protocol with secure resolution extensions), 
XRI metadata (special XRI identifiers used for describing other 
XRI identifiers), and documents supporting implementation and 
interoperability of XRIs.

A separate OASIS TC (XRI Data Interchange - XDI) is expected to 
define an XML schema and an associated Web service for exchanging 
data and metadata identified by XRIs.
"


It seems the second paragraph hints that Yadis may be a better fit 
in the XDI TC?
