I think that sentence is saying something slightly different.

It is saying "the specification for JSON that this RFC uses is the RFC for MIME media type application/json", i.e. RFC 4627 and successors. See https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4627.html

The specification for application/xml is RFC 7303 and successors. See https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc7303/ Unlike with JSON, this specification does not define XML per se but refers back to W3C XML 1.0 (FifthEdition).

Rick

Hi Folks,

This document [1] defines JSON documents this way:

A JSON document is an information resource (series of octets) described by the application/json media type.

Would it be correct to define XML documents in an analogous way:

An XML document is an information resource (series of octets) described by the application/xml media type.

Two More Questions:

1. What is an "information resource"?

2. The parenthetical remark seems to imply that an information resource is a "series of octets". Is an information resource a series of octets?
