One of the outstanding issues for HTML5 is the question of whether HTML5
should solve the problem that RDFa solves, e.g. by embedding RDFa straight
into HTML5, or by some other method.
Before I can determine whether we should solve this problem, and before I
can evaluate proposals for solving
Hello,
As per a discussion with Ian on IRC, several issues jumped out at me
when looking over the proposed data provider APIs for the datagrid
tag (DataGridDataProvider).:
* most of the APIs for providing data are synchronous, implying that
the entire data set be local or that systems that

It does make sense I guess, that certain fields should not be

maybe we could just say that spellchecking is disabled when type is not text

Hi Ian, Jonas.
Ian Hickson:
The UA would set a limit on the value it accepts for maxlength=, and
then cap the result at that, preventing someone from entering more than
4GB (or 2GB, or 4TB, or whatever limit the UA has). Does that answer your
question? In practice I would expect other

Summary:
I believe that there are use cases for RDFa - and that they are precisely
the sort of thing that Yahoo, Google, Ask, and their ilk are not going to
be interested in, since they are based on solving problems that those
search engines do not efficiently solve, such as (among others)
