As Kevin said, this does sound very similar to what we're discussing  
over on microformats REST:

http://microformats.org/wiki/rest/

I apologize for jumping into this thread late, but I'm curious  
whether you *can't* use HTML, or just weren't planning to because you  
didn't have a web browser in the loop. If the latter, I would  
definitely encourage you to consider the XOXO option.   I actually  
think it would be straightforward to implement "REX" (REST-Enabled  
XHTML) on other transports, in which case it would be germaine on the  
microformats-rest list.

Best,
Ernie P.
