See https://github.com/OParl/specs/issues/64

Example using JSON-LD: https://github.com/OParl/specs/issues/64#issuecomment-45727200

With the exception of the absense of paging this seems to be a simple Linked Data Fragment and therefore does not require any additional specification or implementation effort :smile:

Supporting BZip2 (.bz2 files, application/x-bzip) SHOULD be recommended for servers. Paging would not be provided for that media type.

The Open Data Handbook states on the relevance of this feature. :

The data should be available as a complete set. If you have a register which is collected under statute, the entire register should be available for download. A web API or similar service may also be very useful, but they are not a substitutes for bulk access. http://opendatahandbook.org/en/how-to-open-up-data/make-data-available.html

Bulk Data or an API? By Joshua Tauberer. August 2014. https://opengovdata.io/2014/bulk-data-an-api/

Will use PROV-O for provenance information (#83). While it is almost trivial in JSON-LD, N-Quads and TriG to encode information about graphs it is not that trivial for non-quad serializations like Turtle etc.
