XFN Form Mockup

This is a mockup for a more user-friendly form designed to enable SLOpenID users to use XFN and vote-links microformats to describe their relationships with other Second Life Residents with more fine-grained control than contact, friend, or spouse (calling cards, friend list and partner features respectively).

Here are some additional values, each of which can be used or omitted in any combination (unless otherwise noted, and except where prohibited by law) and their meanings, symmetry, transitivity and inverse if any. Please see the XFN home page for more information about XFN.
