Almost forgot one point: FN is required by hCard. 'Title' is not required. I would argue that a *required* attribute is off limits to other formats more than an optional attribute. Tim On Feb 16, 2008 8:56 AM, Tim White [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Feb 15, 2008 7:34 PM, Ben Ward [EMAIL

OK, this is getting a bit wild. Can everyone please take a little stock. I shall try to lay out what I see are the ‘facts’ of this situation, which are being debated at length, but can't actually be altered. So: • ‘title’ is specified as something else. • ‘fn’ is perceived as too generic

Some of this was already mentioned but here are my thoughts for whatever it's worth: I think that FN is more likely to cause a conflict then TITLE for audio title simply because FN is more likely ('must' have in hCard) to occur in hCard then TITLE if and where hAudio uses FN instead of TITLE.
