Julian,
some comments on the link relation draft:
2. Terminology
It is not clear to me, what the meaning of 'check out' and 'check in'.
Also, the text (IMO) creates the impression that versioning can only
take place when 'check out' and 'check in' are applied. However, a
resource could also be versioned by the server upon any modification
made by a client regardless of any 'checking out' or 'checking in'.
The link relations specified would still make sense.
Assuming that 'checking out' and 'checking in' are operations on
resources, I think the draft should address how clients achieve these
operations. This would at least involve another link relation and
specification how to use the linked resource to perform a checkout.
Or am I misunderstanding what the draft is trying to do?
Appendix A
It should be 'working-copy' instead of 'working-resource'.
I am glad to see this happening. Covers a lot of stuff that comes up
in almost every project. Thanks.

(FYI)
This update to yesterday's draft is purely editorial, moving each
link relation into a proper subsection, and using the correct IANA
registration template as defined per RFC 4287.
At this point we'd like to ask the community for final feedback; we
are planning to request publication in two weeks from now (Dec 04).
Best regards,
Julian
