Thanks for the helpful information! I need these data just locally, so interoperability with other systems is not an issue. I'm just not sure if I should leave it this way, live with the slithly uglier turtle-file and wait for a jena adaptation. Or make some compromise like http://foo/s123 which is also slithly ugly. It's important for me that I don't have to change the uri's afterwards. So, what's your opinion about that? Can somebody estimate, if and when that will be a feature in jena?
