Technical Summary

   This specification defines the Link-Template HTTP header field,
   providing a means for describing the structure of a link between two
   resources, so that new links can be generated.

Working Group Summary
   
   A few "prominent in the field" people were those most active in the 
discussions.
Consensus to adopt was strong, WGLC received no comments. There was not 
controversy
Some found the `var-base` concept confusing, but it does have an example and 
should
be familiar to those involved in URI's.

Document Quality

   There is no implementation available but there was interest using this. 
Several people see the need to be able to "templatize" HTTP link relations.
The authors (and many of those who reviewed and comment) are active members of
both HTTPAPI and HTTP-BIS working groups. 

Personnel

   The Document Shepherd for this document is Rich Salz. The Responsible
   Area Director is Zaheduzzaman Sarker.
