Replacing firstname with givenname seems like a clear improvement. The rationale for that change is maybe obvious enough that I really doubt anybody can or will reasonably object to it. But it doesn't seem obvious to me at least that replacing surname with familyname would be a clear improvement. --Mike -- Michael(tm) Smith http://people.w3.org/mike/ http://sideshowbarker.net/
