That would add *4* more *new* class names to the vocabulary, which is something we very much seek to avoid (part of the "micro" in microformats is about minimizing vocabulary and keeping it simple). See: http://microformats.org/wiki/naming-principles We try as much to reuse existing microformats (e.g. hCard) as possible, where the underlying semantics are the same. As Ryan pointed out the temporal nature is already handled by the containing hCalendar event. Someone's business card is *still* one of their business cards, even 5 years later, even after they have changed jobs. In essence that's what we're saying with hResume, that for each job, you (at least semantically) have or had a business card and thus it makes sense to use hCard to represent that information. > I would avoid class="title", anyway, as there's already a title > attribute.
