RE: ldp-ISSUE-16 (stevebattle): Redirection of non-information resources to BPRs [Use Cases and Requirements]

Kingsley,

 

“FWIW -- the term non-information resource is terminology the community is moving away from, due to its implicit incoherence.”

 

Admittedly I’m not up with the kids; is “non-information entity” less oxymoronic?

FWIW -- the term non-information resource is terminology the community is moving away from, due to its implicit incoherence. 

You have Web documents. 
Everything else. 
All of the above can be denoted using:

1. URIs
2. HTTP URIs.

When dealing with Web documents special case,  the denotation mechanism is an HTTP URL which of course is also a kind of URI. Thus, a Web document (specifically) can be denoted using a HTTP URI/URL. No so for anything else :-)
