Re: CfC: Resolution Annotation Protocol to make JSON-LD default returned if no HTTP Accept request header (deadline 24 June 2015)

I would be in favor of having JSON-LD as the default be a requested change
to discuss early in the LDP-Next work.  I (personally) don't think it
blocks the WAWG protocol work, as we have only minimal implementation
experience to date and sufficient overlap between WAWG and LDPWG to have
engaged and productive discussions, such as currently :)  As noted, the two
are not incompatible.

I agree with Arnaud that it's not a technical error -- it's completely
implementable and in some circles it would be the appropriate choice.

I would propose that Doug's additional question be discussed separately,
initially in the WAWG list and then once there is clarity there, having
further joint discussions.
