[HTTP-range-14] Hyperthing: Semantic Web URI Validator (303, 301, 302, 307 and hash URIs)

Following the HTTP-range-14 discussion, we developed a Semantic Web URIs
Validator named Hyperthing <http://www.hyperthing.org/> which helps to
publish the Linked Data. We particularly investigated what happens when we
temporary and permnent redirect (e.g. 301 and 302 redirections) of a
Semantic Web URI (303 and hash URI).

http://www.hyperthing.org/

Hyperthing mainly functions for three purposes:
1) It determines if the requested URI identifies a Real World Object or a
Web document;
2) It checks whether the URIs publishing method follows the W3C hash URIs
and 303 URI practice;
3) It can be used to check the validity of the chains of the redirection
between the Real World Object URIs and Document URIs to prevent the data
publisher mistakenly redirecting between these two kinds. (e.g. it checks
against redirection which include 301, 302 and 307)
