Hi,
The link to the spec appears to be broken.
Do you know if this feature will be in the next release and when that is likely to be?

Great work looking forward to the implementation. One observation however with regards the $select should the returned entities comply with any data annotations like Required on the entity model? personally I think the return should always have the Required properties regardless of the $select

Consumerization of IT says that assume and design for internet connected non-domain joined mobile mostly devices and tablets. Given that the need for $select and $expand operators is very important if we are to use the mvc4 web api stack in lieu of the wcf data services alternative.
