Odd whitespace and punctuation in dcat feed

[simon-vc]

The dcat feed is written in turtle syntax. There need to be spaces before the . and ;
. is used to define the end of a triple
; defines the seperation between predicates (e.g. dct:title)
, is used to seperate between objects (the value for the predicate)

[peterdesmet]

OK. Is the DCAT validator already running somewhere?

Thanks. I noticed that the turtle expression of the Datatank Demo has the same whitespace. The validator seems to allow no whitespace (maybe something to report?)

[peterdesmet]

@simon-vc, I assume that ;, not , is used to separate objects in your comment?

[Amenai]

We dont understand, can you give us the error message or the DCAT feed. We test a lots of time and we didn't get this error

[peterdesmet]

Sorry, should have been clearer:

• This issue can be closed (whitespace is required)
• The validator does NOT complain if there is NO whitespace (this is a validator issue)

They use a library to check and validate the code, they cant change it for the moment. Thx for the report
