Subject: Re: [wsrp-wsia] [I#120] propertiesDescription not inentityDescription, why?







I think there are 2 reasons for this:

1) Historical. Just recently we decided to include Properties in v1. There
had been an effort to keep the definitions isolated pending that decision.

2) Usage. The question has been raised as to the number of Consumers that
would request this information. I think that adding it to entityDescription
likely doesn't expand that structure enough to worry about this ...
Consumers can always choose to ignore the information.

I would still propose keeping the separate operation for dynamically
constructed Consumer UIs for End-User personalization. This allows the
Consumer to get a description that is relevant to the userContext for this
End-User so that the correct page can be built. This use case may be
required for Consumers wanting to implement a hierarchical structure to the
entities they clone.
