Understood. I am taking your response to mean that the WG has not decided that multi-line comments are a bad idea, but that the WG has merely decided not to put them in the current (1.1) version of SPARQL. If I am wrong please let me know. Would you please add this (or should I add it directly?) to the Future Work Items list for consideration in the next version? http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/wiki/Future_Work_Items Thanks, David On Tue, 2012-03-06 at 16:40 +0000, Andy Seaborne wrote: > > On 08/02/12 20:09, David Booth wrote: > > Inspired by a post from Danny Ayres > > http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/semantic-web/2012Feb/0031.html > > and by my own need, it would be very helpful to have multi-line comments > > in SPARQL (and Turtle too) > > David, > > Thank you for the comment on multiline comments. > > It is a stylistic point as to whether C-style multiline comments are a > good or bad idea.
