</style>I like the sound of the 'compactness' of the format, but I worry that there is a lack of tools that support the format (ie browsers, mainly). It
is quite nice to naturally navigate the rdf world with a standard browser. But for transfer standards, I suppose this wouldn't matter.<br>

<div class="PlainText">Let's make N3 be the recommended RDF representation. It is way more<br>
compact and human readable than RDF/XML. We could even specify a<br>
normative conversion tool if necessary.<br>
