Great survey! The issue of resource description vs. resource representation is one that's cropped up quite a lot around RDF, though offhand I can't think where to find relevant material, except URIQA [1] (from about 2004) which is a set of custom HTTP methods. There's also tangentially related material at WebDescriptionProposals [2] (WADL, WIDL, WRDL...). Cheers, Danny.
