ISSUE-61: remove membershipSubject

membershipSubject

remove membershipSubject

State:
CLOSED
Product:
Linked Data Platform Spec
Raised by:
Henry Story
Opened on:
2013-04-23
Description:
the ldp:membershipSubject functionality was never really discussed in the Working group, but it was just taken on from the original IBM proposal. It complicates things and makes the LDPC model a lot harder to understand:

- if the subject is another LDPC why not just POST to that other LDPC? In which case this feature is redundant.
- if the subject is not an LDPC why not just PATCH the other LDPR with the new information? In which case this feature is redundant.

What is the use case for this? Given that the aim of this first spec is to be very simple, why is this needed at all, when so many other features have been having trouble being developed?
