While working on PHP Shindig’s REST Atom interface I also added XDRS discovery support to Partuza, however such things are notoriously hard to test without a tool to send the correct Accept:.. headers.

Since this will also be quite important to test during OpenID and OAuth development, I thought an easy to use web based tool might be easier then command line scripts, so here’s the XDRS fetcher:
