"no problem. love what you're working on here. i did something a bit dff several years ago by focusing on a higher-level abstraction of links and forms -- H-Factors. http://amundsen.com/hypermedia... the idea is to identify common actions within media-types and give them a name. most all media types support the LO factor (link-outbound) and few support the LI factor (idempotent write). and so forth." - MikeAmundsen
