We're not talking about the same thing but I think the case you're making here is pretty strong. The issue that I've been trying to solve in my mind (and I'm sure we're all on the same page here) is given an attribute A nested in micrformats M, N and P (from inner to outer), is "what does A belong to". If the answer is "all of them" then there seems to seems to be a potential conflict "consistent meaning" and "same meaning".
I'm trying to stay out of this because of I'm being consumed by other commitments, but I'm really pleased to see a very healthy ongoing conversation on the subject on this list. I think I really like the way that David is stating the issue and am patiently hoping to see the uf community taking this issue up further and watching for an outcome. As an aside, I'm going to refocus my "semantic html" efforts from worrying too much about the new attributes (e.g. RDFa: about, property, etc) and worrying about mechanisms to resolve cases such as the one posted by David. However, more importantly, I need to find an important enough instance of the so-called problem that needs us to resolve the "general microformat(s)" case instead of hoping that if we build it, they will come. -Elias _______________________________________________ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
