Re: ShEx questionnaire (was Re: RDF validation questionnaire)

Arnaud,

If the intent of the questionnaire was to get input from the broader
community on the importance of the RDF validation requirements/features
explained in the questionnaire, I believe it could be written in a way that
is not (only) ShEx specific.

If the intent of the questionnaire was something else, I’d like to
understand what it was.

I'm afraid the current situation makes this impossible given that as Peter
pointed out the WG has yet to adopt any proposal and SHACL is therefore
currently undefined.
