ISSUE-110: Last Call Comment: why is @src the same as @about instead of @href?
http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/track/issues/110 Raised by: Ben Adida On product: RDFa raised by Laurens Holst in [1]: """ Second, are you sure that it is a good idea to give @src different semantics than @href? I think it would probably be better if they had the same semantics in RDFa. The reason for this is that I find the difference between overriding @src and @href values (as explained in the Primer [2] section 3.6) confusing, and it is not really clear to me why they are treated differently. After all, they both reference a resource in a very similar manner, only differing in the way the resource is displayed. The usefulness of treating @src as @about also seems to be rather limited, as <img> can not have child content and you can thus specify at most three triples; one with a literal object, one with a resource object, and one reverse relation of the resource. Or, maybe @href should also be treated as @about? """ A good response by Mark in [2]. May be enough, will discuss with task force.
