What happened to the "rev" attribute?
The problem with the rev attribute is that it's difficult for authors to understand the concept of a reverse link relationship; and compared with rel, it's hardly ever used.
There's only one use of rev that I'm aware of which is listed on microformats.org. It's for vote-links, but I don't think those relationships should be used anyway.
Neither the <a> or <link> element seems to have it anymore...
I think it should still be present, but it's semantics would need to be clarified and explained. We should probably also identify some real use cases where it is actually useful for authors.
The "rev" attribute is important for allowing what I call "opaque semantics".
Can you more clearly define what you mean by "opaque semantics"? -- Lachlan Hunt http://lachy.id.au/
