+### AGL features
+
+The AGL framework uses the feature tag for specifying security and binding
+requirement of the widget.
+
+The current version of AGL (up to 2.0.1, blowfish) has no fully implemented
+features.
+
+The features planned to be implemented are described below.
+
+#### feature name="urn:AGL:required-binding"
+
+List of the bindings required by the widget.
+
+Each required binding must be explicited using a <param> entry.
+
+##### param name=[required binding name]
+
+The value is either:
+
+- required: the binding is mandatorily needed except if the feature
+isn't required (required="false") and in that case it is optional.
+- optional: the binding is optional
+
+#### feature name="urn:AGL:required-permission"
+
+List of the permissions required by the widget.
+
+Each required permission must be explicited using a <param> entry.
+
+##### param name=[required permission name]
+
+The value is either:
+
+- required: the permission is mandatorily needed except if the feature
+isn't required (required="false") and in that case it is optional.
+- optional: the permission is optional
+
+#### feature name="urn:AGL:provided-binding"
+
+Use this feature for each provided binding of the widget.
+The parameters are:
+
+##### param name="name"
+
+REQUIRED
+
+The value is the string that must match the binding prefix.
+It must be unique.
+
+##### param name="src"
+
+REQUIRED
+
+The value is the path of the shared library for the binding.
+
+##### param name="type"
+
+REQUIRED
+
+Currently it must be ***application/vnd.agl.binding.v1***.
+
+
+##### param name="scope"
+
+REQUIRED
+
+The value indicate the availability of the binidng:
+
+- private: used only by the widget
+- public: available to allowed clients as a remote service (requires permission+)
+- inline: available to allowed clients inside their binding (unsafe, requires permission+++)
+
+##### param name="needed-binding"
+
+OPTIONAL
+
+The value is a space separated list of binding's names that the binding needs.
+
+#### feature name="urn:AGL:defined-permission"
+
+Each required permission must be explicited using a <param> entry.
+
+##### param name=[defined permission name]
+
+The value is the level of the defined permission.
+Standard levels are:
+
+- system
+- platform
+- partner
+- public
+
+This level defines the level of accreditation required to get the given
+permission. The accreditions are given by signatures of widgets.
