Hi, IMO the following line from the intro of the N-Triples spec says it all: "N-Triples is an easy to parse line-based subset of Turtle" Parsing (or even thinking about) stuff like <foo><bar>"bla". :::. x:a :b"foo". is way more complicated (and by that not easy) than single space delimited RDF terms. I'm strongly against ever encouraging the no-space form, as i really think we don't need this kind of unnecessary complication. Also I'm a fan of good old unix tools such as sort, grep, sed... ([1] for an example). I'm not saying it's impossible, but without the space it's definitely more complicated and error prone. That said: let's update the specs? (erratum / next version?)
