That fits in with Harry's remarks about IRW, and the general suspicion of deriving important semantics from the details of the HTTP transaction. Here, the only semantics derivable from the transaction is defeasible. In the absence of RDF, this is equivalent to the httpRange-14 finding, so might require only adjustment, rather than replacement, of httpRange-14. > > Very nice.
