Re: PROV-ISSUE-627 (URI-specified-or-REST): Should PROV-AQ specify PROV service URI or always use template?

Tim,

Things have changed from last time, because the same link relation is being used 
to access multiple query mechanisms (something you argued for :^) ).  This is a 
design choice that is a large extent guided by REST principles.  So now I shall 
argue more strongly for sticking with a full-REST pattern.

The client should not have any prior knowledge of how the server URI space is 
used.  That's a basic constraint of REST.  Hence the client MUST learn about the 
URI from the service (in this case from the servioce description).  That's what 
the template defines.
