Question for LID & TypeKey with Yadis identification

Hi,

I have two question for Yadis working with LID and TypeKey.

1.
UA gives Yadis URL to RP, like this:
       http://example.com/myid

And RP finds Yadis Resource Descriptor, which shows:
<xrds:XRDS>
  <XRD>
    <Service>
      <Type>http://lid.netmesh.org/sso/2.0</Type>
      <URI>http://mylid.net/myid</URI>
    </Service>
  </XRD>
</xrds:XRDS>

This case, needless to say RP can identify UA by interacting with
http://mylid.net/myid on LID protocol.
But, RP should identify UA as :
  a. http://example.com/myid
  b. http://mylid.net/myid
which is correct?

If case a. is correct, Yadis protocol can work like OpenID's delegate
specification with LID.
Is this true?

2.
A month before, I saw TypeKey's Yadis definition like:
<xrds:XRDS>
  <XRD>
    <Service>
      <Type>http://www.sixapart.com/typekey/sso/1.0</Type>
      <typekey:MemberName>myid</typekey:MemberName>
    </Service>
  </XRD>
</xrds:XRDS>
But recentry mere to see it.
TypeKey does not work with Yadis?

And if TypeKey can be used with Yadis, UA to be identified as:
  a. http://example.com/myid
  b. myid (TypeKey's account)
Which is correct?
