Maybe within the RDF community. But I presume one of our goals is to create a standard that is adopted by a much wider community. I would assert that the wider community is using XML syntax. They are writing and using tools that process XML. I will ask this question again: Where does the RDF standard say that its syntax is defined by triples? Where is the formal triple syntax for RDF? All I have seen is an XML syntax. What documents have I not read? It would be perfectly reasonable to define a translation from XML to triples in support of existing tools. Or for those people who like to read assembly code. - Mike Michael K.
