Process comment on syntax debate

We have three general proposals on the table for the R2RML syntax:

XML
http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/wiki/Example_of_SQL-based_RDB2RDF_Mapping:_Revision_1

custom syntax
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdb2rdf-wg/2010Aug/0055.html

RDF/Turtle
http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/wiki/R2RML_in_Turtle

And we discuss to find out: Which one is the best? Or which one is  
unnecessary?

But we don't need to answer those questions now. What we need to  
answer now is this: Which of the three is *least likely* to be  
eliminated? Which of these will cause the *least objections*?

If we can identify that one, then we can proceed with writing an R2RML  
spec and test cases, using that syntax.

The question wether to do the other syntaxes as well, can be deferred  
till later.
