             Summary: Deprecate media entities, recommend stream properties
                 Key: ODATA-1298
                 URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-1298
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Protocol
    Affects Versions: V4.01_CS01
            Reporter: Ralf Handl
             Fix For: V4.01_CS02


Media entities are a somewhat obscure heirloom from AtomPub, and the "atomic pair" nature of a media resource and its media entity is not clearly explained and not very intuitive.

We should deprecate them and recommend using "normal" entities with stream properties instead.
