Also, JSON-LD's @context is just a syntactic trick. It is equivalent (though more complex) than the list of @prefix statements in a Turtle file. I do not think this document should define a @context, just as it does not define @prefix statements for Turtle or the most compact way of expressing the response in RDF/XML. > > In my opinion the document is fine as is in this respect. > > Thanks > > Ivan > > > > > > > On Jan 31, 2013, at 18:23 , Provenance Working Group Issue Tracker <sysbot+tracker@w3.org> wrote: > >> PROV-ISSUE-619 (json-ld-service-description): Should PRIV-AQ bless use of JSON-LD for service description?

I'll paste the specific proposal as a separate comment to this issue. >> >> I note that such use of JSON-LD is not disallowed by the current specification, just not explained. The general recommendation is that service descriptions are presented as RDF, though other formats are negotiable in keeping with REST principles. JSON-LD would be a specific [presentation of RDF. >> >> The question is: should we consider making specific mention of JSON-LD for service descriptions?
