Generally, I suppose it's ok, but IMO it didn't dig very deep. I was specifically expecting some wording about representational state; how a document can be used to capture the state of some resource at some point in time, and what that means. Also, I believe the comment about "partial understanding" is incorrect. Tim and Dan have written a fair bit about this, including; http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Evolution.html http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-webarch-extlang http://www.w3.org/1999/04/WebData Some minor comments; - in XHTML example, correct media type is "application/xhtml+xml" - I don't think it's correct to say "So, a first level approximation of a document's meaning is determined solely by its MIME type." What I believe the MIME type does is provide part of the context necessary for determining the meaning. MB -- Mark Baker, Chief Science Officer, Planetfred, Inc.
