RE: ShEx 2.0 Candidate Release

Hi Gregg,

Does there exist somewhere a (preferably objective) comparison of ShEx and SHACL?
Would be a useful resource for people trying to decide which to use/implement.

Something along the lines of:
https://www.w3.org/2012/ldp/wiki/Linked_Data_Platform_(LDP)_vs_SPARQL_Graph_Store_HTTP_Protocol_(GSP)

Cheers,
John

Many of these have been implemented and tested but are not in this version of the specification. We invite feedback from the community on issues with the documents or tests, new feature prioritization and new feature use cases.
