[oslc-core] Should RDF/XML be MUST?

[Arthur Ryman]

Olivier,

I agree that triples, etc. should be used to clarify the spec for 
implementers. In fact I did just that in a document that describes the 
semantics of the simple query syntax. [1] I also described the translation 
of the query parameters into SPARQL [2].

Hi.

IMHO, RDF/XML should be a MUST for *implementations*, but for specs
readability by *implementors* (me, you, may grand-ma ;), Turtle or likes
(diagrams ;) may help capturing the semantics and the logic of the
standard.

Just in case this wasn't clear in my earlier suggestion in another
thread.

Best regards,
