Yea, it does. Thanks for brining up the semantics of <a> for @href. As far as geo links are concerned, I think it does make some sense as a URI. So, the next question is, should parsers pick up the geo data from the anchor, ignore, or do whatever they want with it? -Sarven _______________________________________________ microformats-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
