Whatever we do in regard to discovery or profile attributes, I want to voice my concern again that the AXSchema unnecessarily fragments the number of profile attribute schemas.
I'm specifically pointing out that AXSchema reinvents vcard and a host of other profile formats, which adds yet another burden for developers to map other schema, like Portable Contacts, to the AXSchema. This may not seem like a big deal, and perhaps it's not in the scheme of things (no pun intended), but I would very much like to see AX 1.1 or whatever recommend the use of PoCo-derived schema.
