             Summary: Alert clients that odata may be default namespace in future versions of the protocol
                 Key: ODATA-686
                 URL: https://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-686
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: OData JSON Format
    Affects Versions: V4.0_OS
         Environment: [Proposed]
            Reporter: Michael Pizzo
             Fix For: V4.0_ERRATA01


OData control information is represented in a JSON payload as an annotation within the "odata" namespace. However, many services would like to return such control information without specifying the default "odata" namespace. ODATA-630 proposes allowing services to omit the "odata" namespace for OData control information, effectively making OData the default namespace. This would be more consistent with other formats such as JSON-LD.

It would be nice to make clients aware that this change is likely, to allow them to anticipate it when implementing their V4 implementations.
