This may be a fact of test bias. The test asked for four answers, so I selected four answers, and #4 for me was "Currency unit/denomination used". I didn't really have my heart in it, so to speak. It seems to me that denomination or unit is about presentation, not the data. And I don't think we've had a case before where we defined the microformat to retain presentational aspects. For example, with hCalendar, we don't keep track of how the date/month/year is presented. We just capture the ISO version of the date. Seems we should do the same for the currency. Let the XHTML present the currency unit, but don't worry about it being semantically labelled as such. No offense, btw, to Guillaume regarding test bias. Almost all tests have built-in bias of some kind. It'll take a few revs to figure out the best way to poll for this kind of thing. Thanks for taking the first step. (At least, it is the first poll I've seen for uF.)
