Ralf Handl commented on ODATA-250:
----------------------------------

Ad 1: sure, for CSDL the short-hand attribute notation DOES provide value.

Ad 2: In that case I'd go for the empty string as an alternative notation. We do the same for Path expressions in CSDL, where we intentionally did not use the dot as a pat segment to denote "here".

> In the current [ATOM] spec, the "Annotation" element, as well as the child "Type", "Term" and "Target" attributes are defined in upper  case. This is inconsistent with other element that we define in the ATOM payload (for example, the metadata:function element with attributes "metadata" "target" and "title", the metadata:error element and its attributes, etc.).
