I suspect that this is heading towards XLink.
not really. the important difference is that XLink links instances
(it specifies links for concrete URIs), whereas LDX specifies how to
discover links in media types. i think this is an important
difference, and my post definitely failed to be very specific about
this. the reason why i think it's important is that REST centers
around media types and following links, and LDX should be a god
match with that.
Ah I see. Just read your post again. I don't think link discovery on
its own solves anything, unless the author of the representation or
the media type says something about a link appearing at any given
position an an XML document.
