Hi David (Wood), The wording that you are mentionning here is not completely copying what was suggested at the teleconference. In the minutes, Pat refers to AZ's proposal with his modification. Then Sandro links to an email mentioning the proposal: """ Sandro Hawk: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-wg/2013Oct/0030.html Peter F. Patel-Scheider: I am fine with this wording """ (the minutes are currently unavailable BTW) My proposal was: """ A generalized RDF triple is a triple having a subject, a predicate and object that each can be an IRI, a blank node or a literal. A generalized RDF graph is a set of generalized RDF triples. A generalized RDF dataset comprises a distinguished generalized RDF graphs and zero or more pairs associating an IRI, a blank node or a literal to a generalized RDF graph. Incidentally, generalized RDF triples, graphs, and datasets only differ from normative RDF triples, graphs, and datasets by allowing IRIs, blank nodes and literals to appear anywhere as subject, predicate, object or graph name. """ But the use of the word incidentally is hardly correct and weird in a normative specification, so Pat suggested a change to this sentence: """ Generalized RDF triples, graphs, and datasets only differ from normative RDF triples, graphs, and datasets by allowing IRIs, blank nodes and literals to appear anywhere as subject, predicate, object or graph name. """ such that the proposal that was agreed on should be: """ A generalized RDF triple is a triple having a subject, a predicate and object that each can be an IRI, a blank node or a literal. A generalized RDF graph is a set of generalized RDF triples. A generalized RDF dataset comprises a distinguished generalized RDF graphs and zero or more pairs associating an IRI, a blank node or a literal to a generalized RDF graph.
