I'm not even considering authority for now. We need to just deal
with related hCards first.
I'm no longer clear on what you're proposing, Ryan. I thought you
were proposing UID+URL as an alternative to VIA, as a way to
declare authority through identification rather than through
origin. But if you're not considering declaring authority at all,
then how does this solve our original problem?
As I've mentioned before in this thread. Before trying to solve the
authority problem, we need to solve the simpler problem of related
hCards.
I got confused by trying to solve multiple problems in the same
thread. And I'm still a little confused. Looking back through the
thread with a clearer understanding of your proposal, I'm not clear
on what the use cases are for related hCards other than the
authoritative relationship we started with. Those use cases should
probably be documented in the wiki somewhere, along with some
examples of real-world publishing, so we have some point of reference
to keep everyone who is interested in this topic on the same page.
Also, can we stop sending emails with "authoritative hCard" as the
subject when that's not really what the email is about? If we ever
do arrive at a rough consensus, it would be helpful if someone could
see the process that lead us there.
Peace,
Scott
