What is the root element of a resource?

[KevinBenson]

I changed the example in the spec.  I did not change anything in the 
Harvesting section and only reference I see is with "Resource" not 
"resource"  let me know if I missed it.

As for the samples yes I guess it would be good to change them to 
"Resource" to avoid confusion and in fact I had to do that to add the 
samples into the test registry because the upload process uses a 
schema.  Since  the Spec does not define how you Add/Update new 
Resources or how you store it at the backend, then I did not mind if the 
Samples used "resource" though I could see it might be confusing.

cheers,
Kevin
