Introduction An Embedded Experience Document is a component of the OpenSocial Core Gadget Specification as defined in section C.15 of [OpenSocial]. This Internet Draft defines and registers the MIME Media Types for the JSON and XML forms of the Embedded Experience Document. 2. Notational Conventions The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, [RFC2119] 3. Embedded Experience XML Documents An Embedded Experience Document, when serialized as XML 1.0, can be identified with the following media type: Snell Expires February 21, 2012 [Page 3] Internet-Draft Embed Document August 2011 Type name: application Subtype name: embed+xml Required parameters: None. Optional parameters: "charset": This parameter has smantics identical to the charset parameter of the "application/xml" media type as specified in [RFC3023]. Encoding considerations: Identical to those of "application/xml" as described in [RFC3023], Section 3.2. Security considerations: As defined in this specification. In addition, as this media type uses the "+xml" convention, it shares the same security considerations as described in [RFC3023], Section 10. Interoperability considerations: There are no known interoperability issues. Published specification: This specification. Applications that use this media type: OpenSocial 2.0 (http://opensocial.org) Apache Shindig (http://shindig.apache.org) Additional information: Magic number(s): As specified for "application/xml" in [RFC3023], Section 3.2. File extension(s): .embed Macintosh file type code(s): TEXT Person & email address to contact for further information: James M Snell (jasnell@us.ibm.com) Intended usage: COMMON Restrictions on usage: None Author: James M Snell (jasnell@us.ibm.com) Change controller: IESG 4. Embedded Experience JSON Documents An Embedded Experience Document, when serialized as JSON, can be identified with the following media type: Snell Expires February 21, 2012 [Page 4] Internet-Draft Embed Document August 2011 Type name: application Subtype name: embed+json Required parameters: None. Optional parameters: None. Encoding considerations: Identical to those of "application/json" as described in [RFC4627], Section 6. Security considerations: As defined in this specification. In addition, as this media type uses the "+json" convention, it shares the same security considerations as described in [RFC4627], Section 6. Interoperability considerations: There are no known interoperability issues. Published specification: This specification. Applications that use this media type: OpenSocial 2.0 (http://opensocial.org) Apache Shindig (http://shindig.apache.org) Additional information: Magic number(s): As specified for "application/json" in [RFC4627], Section 6.

Security Considerations As specified within the OpenSocial Core Gadget Specification, section C.15.5. Snell Expires February 21, 2012 [Page 5] Internet-Draft Embed Document August 2011 6. IANA Considerations IANA is asked to register the two MIME media types defined in Section 3 and Section 4. 7. Normative References [OpenSocial] "OpenSocial Core Gadget Specification 2.0", June 2011.
