The examples in the spec use Turtle, but other serialization formats are fine. What am I missing? Well, you need to define conformance somehow. If my R2RML editor can only produce, say, RDFa, is it conforming to R2RML? If your R2RML processor only understands, say, RDF/XML, is it conforming to R2RML? And do they interoperate? Interoperability requires shared syntax. RDF is not a syntax, Turtle is. Best, Richard
