             Summary: OSLC paging should support POST with with application/x-www-form-urlencoded  body
                 Key: OSLCCORE-164
                 URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/OSLCCORE-164
             Project: OASIS OSLC Lifecycle Integration Core (OSLC Core) TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
            Reporter: David Honey
            Assignee: James Amsden


https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/OSLCCORE-124 describes a proposal that POST with application/x-www-form-urlencoded  body should be supported to avoid hitting URI length limits. OSLC paging described in http://open-services.net/bin/view/Main/OslcCoreSpecification#Resource_Paging describes how an oslc:ResponseInfo should include an oslc:nextPage link and that a client fetches the next page with a GET. However, requests, especially those for query, are likely to contain query parameters with long values such that URI length limits are broken. However, for paged query results, getting a page of results is more likely to exceed URI length limits as a stateless implementation will have to include additional parameter(s).
