4.5. RESTful Service Description Language (RSDL)

GET /api?rsdl HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml

This produces an XML document in the following format: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<rsdl href="/api?rsdl" rel="rsdl">
    <description>...</description>
    <version major="3" minor="1" build="0" revision="0"/>
    <schema href="/api?schema" rel="schema">
        <name>...</name>
        <description>...</description>
    </schema>
    <links>
        <link href="/api/capabilities" rel="get">
