The fact it can't contain block level elements still makes it unusable for my needs though (I can't fit my hCard into entirely inline elements, so my pages don't validate correctly if I add address). -Ciaran But you can still use hCard -- just wrap it in something else (div id=hcard/div).

Search the list -- Tantek has made related statements. I too like the idea of the rev attribute, but it's potentially a crap shoot as there's so little behavior for it to be semi-worthless. The idea of XBN is one we've explored previously as well (x-business-network). Again, try searching.

As an aside, at the risk of starting a firestorm, it would be nice if there were a way to let the user decide his one relationship, i.e. maybe a rel=custom: href=...John Smith/a Where is of course the person's one identifier. Basically this would allow people to create a folksonomy.
