RE: [httpRange-14] What do HTTP URIs Identify?

I agree although one might want to ensure the understanding
it is possible to use other means of representing the interpretive expression.  
Otherwise:

"... meaning is created within semiosis and, as I have argued, semiosis and evolution are identical in this context. Meaning is created whenever a sign and an object is merged together and the relation is maintained by an interpretant."

We can say (as a start -- could use some wordsmithing perhaps):

"The meaning of a URI(ref) as intended by its authority is defined by the
set of assertions obtained when the URI is referenced.

When the media type of such a representation is: application/rdf+xml, then
the meaning of the represented URI is given by the graph as per the RDF
model theory."
