resource representation: a realization (copy, instance) of a thing in 
it's current state.

information resource: something which you can GET a resource 
representation of via HTTP.

the is this an IR test?
"is the resource representation I have a copy/instance of the resource?"
yes = pass


That's as terse as I can get.
