Hi,

I am retrieving data from dbpedia in N-TRIPLES format since my client  
supports only this serialization format. However I wonder if the  
output provided by dbpedia is invalid: for instance, when I issue the  
query

DESCRIBE <http://dbpedia.org/resource/Vienna>

with header "Accept: text/plain" [1] the result contains the following  
line:

<http://dbpedia.org/resource/Vienna>    <http://dbpedia.org/property/areaLandKm 
 >      395.51 .

However according to [2] literals in N-triples must be encapsulated in  
quotation marks.

[1] curl -H "Accept: text/plain" 
http://dbpedia.org/sparql?query=describe+dbpedia%3AVienna%0D%0A
[2] <http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-testcases/#ntriples>

Is this a bug/problem in dbpedia or am I getting something wrong?

Thanks, and best regards
Bernhard
