Hey Ben,

Just a note... for now the following should be used instead:

<span class="name">human value<span class="value">machine value</span></span>

The <span class="value" title="machine value"></span> is still in brainstorming so should not be used yet.

Reference:

Cheers,
Anthony.

Actually, it's a clash of microformats' misappropriation of HTML standards VS accessibility...

An empty span won't kill anybody though. What you lose in code purity you gain in a slightly more accessible solution (as long as tools that consume those microformats actually recognise the span solution...been a while since I checked if that's the case - otherwise, it's purely academic).
