Why are the namespaces for creating workitems different from retrieving workitems?

Hi,

I've been reading through https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/WorkItemAPIsForOSLCCM20#Creation_Factories. One problem I came across was when I tried to set enumeration values for attributes. For example the 'severity' attribute. 

This is what it looks like when I do a GET request (notice the oslc_cm namespace):

<rdf:RDF

...
>
    ...


Now when I tried to create a new work item via POST request (using the information from above) it failed to set the severity attribute correctly.
After some time I figured out, that the severity attribute is set correctly during creation if I use the following namespace instead (notice the oslc_cmx namespace):



<rdf:RDF
    xmlns:oslc_cmx="http://open-services.net/ns/cm-x#"
    ...
>
  <rdf:Description rdf:nodeID="A0">
    ...


Can anyone shed some light on, why different namespaces are required for retrieving and creating workitems?

Kind regards,
Fabian

Sorry, for the bad formatting. I tried to edit the question, but I can't. The forum software keeps telling me my question is spam :(

I submitted your question as ham. Not sure that it will help. Don't worry Fabian, it is almost impossible to mix XML into the forum questions without making a mess.

Until humanity understands that they need a set of meta signs that cannot be used in text, it will not get better. Once they do, we will welcome them in the club of almost intelligent civilizations. Wink ;)
