I have a question about the "author" property in hAtom...

The spec says that "author" is modelled on the Atom AUTHOR element ( http://atomenabled.org/developers/syndication/#requiredFeedElements ) and must be encoded as an hCard.

Now, here's an example of a perfectly valid hCard:

<p class="vcard">Hello, my name is <span class="fn">Jeremy Keith</ span>.</p>

So my question is: is this valid for hAtom?:

<p class="author vcard">Hello, my name is <span class="fn">Jeremy Keith</span>.</p>

The reason I ask is that all of the hAtom examples ( http://microformats.org/wiki/hatom-examples ) show the "author" property *only* containing the n/fn property of an hCard, e.g.:

<p>Hello, my name is <span class="vcard author"><span class="fn">Jeremy Keith</span></span>.</p>

So, is the spec correct and it's just that I'm being slightly misled by the examples?

Thanks in advance,

Jeremy
