We have things like the DBpedia dumps already online: http://dbpedia.org/Downloads37 To have TriG, the basic syntax, not being able to express basic dumps in the way N-Quads can is possible but its going to place an education cost on explaining that N-Quads -> TriG can't be done without additional I would like to see vocabulary on top of the basic syntax, not requiring it's use. Like the time example we had in the telecon, sometimes, there will be data without the full modelling details. Andy
