Comment on "RDF Test Cases". W3C Recommendation 10 February 2004 In http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-testcases/#ntriples it says, The Internet media type / MIME type of N-Triples is text/plain and the character encoding is 7-bit US-ASCII. This is a bug, I think. It prevents crawlers from absorbing the file and indexing it proerly, it will prevent the file from being dispatched inside a data browser to a data-handling view, and so on. I would suggest text/rdf+n3 if the assumption is correct that NTriples is a subset of N3. Otherwise I suppose text/rdf+nt or something would be logical. Anotehr possibility would be text/rdf=n3; level=nt introducing a level parameter to explain what level of N3 was being used. Tim BL
