             Summary: Consider making odata the default namespace for annotations
                 Key: ODATA-630
                 URL: https://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-630
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: OData JSON Format
    Affects Versions: V4.0_OS
         Environment: [Proposed]
            Reporter: Michael Pizzo
             Fix For: V4.1_WD01


OData control information is represented in a JSON payload using annotations in the odata namespace, such as:
"@odata.nextlink":"http://...";
For services that want the payload to look as much as possible like handcrafted json, the fact that "odata" is explicitly called out in the payload is a distraction.

We might make it easier for services to ease into OData's JSON format by making odata the default namespace, such that the same annotation could be written equivalently as:
"@nextlink":"http://...";
