The examples below don't show that. I like the idea of commas, both because it adds clarity for the user, and because it matches better with SQL. <snip/> > ---- > Steve has proposed mandating commas in a SELECT form when an expression or AS is used. > > SELECT ?x ?y ?z > SELECT ?x , ?y , count(?a) AS ?z I'm comfortable with this as it keeps consistency with using commas already. Of course, commas can't be mandated without breaking backward compatibility, but I don't see a problem with new language features forcing their use. Regards, Paul Gearon
