Richard and I have looked at the diagram and discussed about it,
the approach as depicted on above image [3] is confusing us,
is seems to be different from the photo at [2],
and also to what is written in http-range-14.

In the *worst* way, I could intentionally mis-interpret [3] as the 
following:
== worst case===
* URIthing identifying the thing
* URIgen identifying a forwarder uri
* URIrdf identifying a rdf document
* URIhtml identifying a html document

On a GET to URIthing
it makes a  303 redirect to URIgen,
which will do another 303 (based on conneg) to either,
URIrdf or URIhtml.
== /worst case ==

3 http roundtrips - this is not what you had in mind!?

I would guess that other readers may also mis-interpret the provided 
graphic [3] and therefore would NOT use it as is in the document.

My understanding of the decision was:
== we assumed ==
Assuming we start with graphic [4], the content-negotiation and 303 
redirect is handled:
On a GET to URIthing
make a 303 redirect from URIthing to URIrdf or URIhtml based on conneg, 
defaulting to "URIhtml" for browsers that do not pass RDF as "accept"
== /we assumed==

YES?

Out of sheer curiosity, I wonder if using a method indicated on [5] may 
also work for semantic-web redirects... but we will stick to 303 in the 
document, we only wanted to explain the http-range-14 decision.
