* conneg = Content Negotiation for Media Types, understanding and using the Accept-* headers

** conditional = Conditional requests on the client side, using Last-Modified and ETag headers, providing support for 304 Not Modified response. Server side support to conditional requests: providing both headers and 304 when required.

*** cache = Caching support on the client side (used for conditional requests and expiration policies through cache headers)

[1] Exyus does not automatically generate hypermedia links but developers have full control over representations via XSLT transformations

[2] FRAPI does not automatically generate hypermedia but instructs users on how to have full control over their representation.
