x 303 -> y means "y is a description of x" and therefore y is an information resource.
My point is: that's a perfectly coherent definition for 303 in principle, but I don't read RFC 2616 as saying that. I read RFC 2616 as saying, "If you were interested in x, then y is something that you might want to >see also<". Now if (the representation of) y happens to be an RDF document that happens to make statements about x, terrific. I'm fine encouraging that idiom. I'm a bit nervous about saying: "by the way, if y were to turn out to be anything other than such a description, than that 303 is certainly an error". Where are the normative specs supporting that conclusion?
