Dear all,

In a previous thread [1], the following issue came up:
    How can a server suggest to a client that a certain resource can/should be dereferenced?

I created Issue 91 to track this: https://github.com/HydraCG/Specifications/issues/91

Currently proposed solutions are:

- Solution 1: set the type of the resource to hydra:Resource
 https://github.com/HydraCG/Specifications/issues/91#issuecomment-70482488

- Solution 2: set the hydra:dereferenceable property
  https://github.com/HydraCG/Specifications/issues/91#issuecomment-70482696

Feel free to propose alternative solutions and/or comment on existing solutions.

For the sake of clarity, I would propose to discuss this independently of Issue 90.
The arguments for Issue 90 clearly depend on the outcome of this Issue 91,
but the arguments for 91 should IMHO not influence 90.

Best,

Ruben
