-----------------------------------

             Summary: Prepare clients to deal with type annotations without the leading "#"
                 Key: ODATA-687
                 URL: https://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-687
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: OData ATOM Format , OData JSON Format
    Affects Versions: V4.0_OS
         Environment: [Proposed]
            Reporter: Michael Pizzo
             Fix For: V4.0_ERRATA02


ODATA-561 calls out the fact that the leading "#" is not really required (and doesn't really make sense) for primitive types (because they are not really a fragment located within the metadata document) and suggests (for backward compatibility) allowing, but not requiring, services to omit the "#" for primitive types.

We should make clients aware that this change is expected, so that they can write their code appropriately.
