Raised by: Richard Cyganiak
On product: RDF Graphs

The group could add multi-graph support to the existing single-graph formats (RDF/XML, Turtle, N-Triples). Arguments have been made that this is not acceptable because it would fundamentally change the formats, requiring implementations to change from graph storage to quad storage; therefore multi-graph support should be done in new formats with different media type.
