Could you, perhaps, get some of them to start analyzing websites[1] for
us :)

Re: [uf-discuss] hAudio rel-enclosure & linking issues

Please can you explain a little further why you have an issue with this?

It seems sound enough to me :) I have found more often than not that a
purchased audio track is rarely downloaded from the website you actually
buy the track from.

rel="encloseure" simply means that the hyperlink destination is
something that can be downloaded or cached?

Thanks

Martin McEvoy

p.s I posted this one too to microformats new ;) the same reasons as
before.

Re: [uf-discuss] hAudio issue: position

2008-01-11 Thread Martin McEvoy
Hello Andy

I have cross posted this email to microformats new as I believe hAudio
is still in development and any Issues anyone may have with haudio
should really be posted there.

Position was a late addition because most of the examples we were
studying used tables in the design of their web pages, we also found
that XOXO or OL doesn't work in tables
http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-new/2007-June/000482.html
 
so now you can do both, use an ordered list without marking up
"position" and also use hAudio in tables with the ability to markup
position. 


Thanks

+1 for me. +1 for our company.

It would be a real shame if only one way of extracting semantics from a
web page were supported in Firefox. If Firefox is serious about the
semantic web, it would be nice to see support for all the methods of
expressing semantics on web pages.

Note the recent proposal on creating a unified representation for
semantic objects (uF, RDFa, eRDF):

http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-dev/2008-January/000410.html

This would make it much easier for Firefox to support semantics in
pages. It isn't technically difficult to support all of them, so I see
no reason not to do so.

do you have any plans to support rdf-a in the
interface? In 4.0, 5.0, 6.0?


We haven't decided yet, and I would love to hear people's opinions  
both in favor of and against including RDFa support in a future  
release of Firefox.

The next major release (point releases are primarily used for  
security

updates).  In general we try to do a release every 12 months, but
since 3 has turned into a longer cycle (starting to look like 16-17
months) and focused on a lot of backed changes, the next release may
potentially be a shorter cycle and be more about front end changes.
However, that plan hasn't been formalized yet.  Since we are
completely focused on 3 right now, we don't have an estimated  
schedule

of exactly when we would like to ship 4.0
