OK, one more try. I'm pretty ambivalent about the xml:base issue. However, because the value of rdf:id is syntactically an XML name symbol (not a URI), which appears to get resolved into an absolute URI dependant on the base URI of the RDF it appears in, I _can't_ post my test cases and results to the list in the same email unless I have a moment of prescience, wherever they use nonabsolute URIs. We agreed that ntriples should use absolute URIs. So while Aaron's output is highly suggestive: > <#foobar> rdf:subject _:genid . the subject there looks illegal to me. That's why xml:base appears in the rdf:RDF element containing a couple of test cases. If someone has an easy way to fix this, please let me know. If that means extending ntriples to use this URI-base-unaware notation, fine, but I'd like to see a definitive draw-a-line-under-it-and-go-no-further ntriples definition.
