Hi Ed, Forgot to answer this part: > I’d be interested to hear what your specific use case is. In my research [1], I'm looking at giving machines the same affordances as people. Many things on today's Web cannot be done by machines due to a lack of affordances. While RDF allows to interpret data and facts, it does not help to interpret actions. So use cases I'm looking at are: - how to represent a HTML page with a form in RDF, so automated clients can use it? - how to make such clients search? - how to make them execute state-changing actions? Giving them access to hypermedia controls is a crucial part in that [2].
