OK. Looks good so far.

A general question: what's the relation between "up" and "collection"? 
Do you see "up" as a special case in that it mentions document hierarchies?

Editorial:

- as Mykyta noted: no need for Section 2 if you don't need the keywords

- the examples use a JSON vocabulary without saying what it is; you may 
want to reference "your" media types

- alternatively or additionally, add Link header field examples

- IANA considerations: replace "this document" with a reference to the 
actual section

- I18N: just point to RFC 5988, Section 8.

As Mykyta said: cite RFC 5988 and then think about additional issues.

...and maybe link loops. Not sure what can be said; all of these seem to 
generic to any kind of following hyperlinks.
