Hi Silvio, Using self-closed tags for void elements as well as using end tags even in situations where they can be omitted in HTML5 is common agreement among whole team. They improve readability - you immediately know what was intentional and what a mistake. As for patch rejection - no, most likely the other way round :).

I'd say not rejected but you'll be most likely asked to make it consistent with the others.

I am fine with using self-closing tags as long as everyone is aware that using it in a non-void tag will create bad markup and understand that the browser will just remove the /'s. It happened with i class=iconclass/ already, which is wrong and invalid) In HTML5 foo/ is expanded to foo.
