On product: Accessing and Querying Provenance

Although we are NOT defining any specific mechanism for finding provenance services, might we recommend a URI for the class of provenance services?

The initial class description for <http://www.w3.org/ns/prov-o/ProvenanceService> is at:

http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/prov/file/0abd4c442b42/ontology/components/ProvenanceService.ttl

This would allow anyone to type there service, making it easier for others to find in "whatever mechanism" they adopt:

<http://example.info/provenance_service/> rdf:type <http://www.w3.org/ns/prov-o/ProvenanceService> .

Thanks,
Tim
