Re: [oslc-domains-comment] OSLC + OData

George,
There's certainly
a lot of overlap between OData and OSLC. They both define REST protocols
for CRUD operations on resources. But there are key differences. OSLC also
deals with discovery, resource preview, delegated dialogs and query capability
- for the purpose of supporting application integration, not just data
access and exchange. OSLC is also based on Linked Data Platform and uses
RDF serialization formats for resource representations. This helps reduce
the variability in data structures because of exploitation of open-world
assumptions and a simple formalism for discovering interesting, semantically
rich, links.

OSLC + OData

Multiple
OASIS RESTful protocol standards is not a good thing.

Do OData and OSLC
payloads conform to the same metamodel?
Is the use of HTTP
verbs consistent across both OData and OSLC?
Is the use of HTTP
headers consistent across both OData and OSLC?
Are the set of query
parameters consistent across both OData and OSLC?
Does discovery from
a known service access point follow the same rules? 
Thanks,

George
