Further proposal at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-prov-wg/2013Jan/0002.html

Main points:
- propose to use single link relation type for provenance service via template and SPARQL endpoint
- stick with RDF for service description (there's some uncertainty about this among some LDPers)
- expand service description to allow either or both service option
- service description with URI template unchecked (but see below)
- SPARQL service description per http://www.w3.org/TR/sparql11-service-description/ (i.e. nothing new here)

Outstanding question: prov:ProvenanceService as RDF type: applies tom all service options or just templated service? If the latter, then no change. If the former, I propose to introduce a new type that applies to just the template version of the interface.

I think this is substantially covered by recent query service component changes, which were generally following feedback from the WG and discussion with LDP participants. Some further name-changes are in the works, but I think the basic mechanism (service description) is now in place.

I'll mark this as pending review when the current round of document edits are done.
