Hi Julian,
Thank-you for your views.
Are you suggesting that we instead introduce a new link relation
(perhaps "contact") with tel:/mailto: types for specifying these parameters?
This would involve spec modification. Not sure how developers or
browser vendors take to it.
Why would it involve a spec modification?
Currently the link types defined by the specification are:
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#linkTypes
Please correct me if I am wrong but I suspect introducing a new rel type would
involve modifying the spec as well.
No. There's a Wiki for it.
Adding new meta extensions however would not have any such overhead as far as I
know.
Was looking for a simpler solution that's quickly implementable.
Why is <meta> any simpler than <link>???
