Fwd: Last Call drafts of five RDF 1.1 documents

Addison,

In the announcement below there are three documents about RDF syntax of 
potential interest to I18N.

   * TriG   http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-trig-20130919/
   This syntax is an extension of Turtle for multiple graphs (but relies 
heavily on Turtle)

   * N-Triples http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-n-triples-20130905/
   This is a subset of Turtle

   * N-Quads http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-n-quads-20130905/
   This is a subset of  TriG (the first document)

So all three are strongly related to Turtle, which was already reviewed 
by your group.  We therefore hope it will not be too much effort to take 
a look at these syntaxes. It would be highly appreciated if you could 
let us know by 17 October whether you have remarks.

Thanks in advance,
Guus

Dear colleagues,

[Our sincerest apologies: the announcement below was by an omission on
our side not sent before to this list.  If a group likes to comment but
requires more time than the indicated two weeks, please let us know. ]

The RDF Working Group [1] is pleased to announce five Last Call Working
Drafts. These documents are:

* RDF 1.1 Concepts and Abstract Syntax
   http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-rdf11-concepts-20130723/
* RDF 1.1 Semantics
   http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-rdf11-mt-20130723/
* TriG
   http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-trig-20130919/
* N-Triples
   http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-n-triples-20130905/
* N-Quads
   http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-n-quads-20130905/

We welcome comments on these documents. We would appreciate if you could
send your comments by *17 October* to public-rdf-comments@w3.org.

The WG was chartered [2] to extend RDF to include some new features that
the community has identified as both desirable and important for
interoperability based on experience with the 2004 version of the
standard, but without having a negative effect on existing deployment
efforts. These new features include support for multiple graphs, a
standard Turtle and a standard JSON syntax for RDF. Support for multiple
graphs is included in the Last Call documents listed above in the form
of "RDF datasets". Documents specifying a Turtle and JSON syntax have
already been announced before and are now available as Candidate
Recommendations [3, 4].

Thanks in advance for your feedback!
