[Fwd: Incorrect braces in Sparql test cases]

Comment on old syntax tests.  What happens about the approved ones?

Some at least, are named "*oldsyntax" in HTML document but I guess people also 
go straight to the directory structure.

Is there anyway to get a listing of the tests that are current?  I sthat part 
of CR work?

In the Sparql test cases[1] some of the test queries use round
parentheses ( and ) rather than curly braces { and }

The grammer[2] appears to only allow the curly braces and this is
supported by the prose.

One approved example using round parentheses is here:

I also believe the following to be incorrect, but not all of these are
approved tests:

Is my interpretation of the grammar correct and should these tests be
updated?
