Issue: should/must the 4th slot be an IRI?

See thread starting with http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-wg/2011Nov/0116.html

Two alternative points of view (see minutes 30 Nov):

1. we are not in a position to constrain the type of the "4th slot"
2. we are standardizing graph identifiers, so they better be identifiers (= IRI)

Todo: list arguments in favor/against these positions (e.g. #1 breaks TriG).

Meta-discussion: routes for reaching consensus

• 4th slot should be an IRI?!
• no semantics for relationship between the Graph IRI and the graph?!
• can we do more?
