PROV-ISSUE-53 (sparql-query-is-overkill): can't we have a lighter method to retrieve provenance-uri, given a document uri? [Accessing and Querying Provenance] http://www.w3.org/2011/prov/track/issues/53 Raised by: Luc Moreau On product: Accessing and Querying Provenance Isn't it too onerous to require third parties to provide sparql endpoints, simply to answer the query illustrated in http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/prov/raw-file/default/paq/provenance-access.html#third-party-services (give the provenance-uris for this resource)? Stian had suggested a REST service to answer this query, encoding the URL as an argument passed to the service. I had outlined a variant with GET instead of POST. Some implementers may not use an RDF serialization of provenance, and therefore, it would be good to have a non-SPARQL approach for finding a provenance URI.
