07.10.2016, 23:29, "Léonie Watson" <tink@tink.uk>: > #606 Allow use of address element in all contexts: > https://github.com/w3c/html/issues/606 The question here is whether we should change the <address> element, so that it wraps up any postal address. This would mean a change since it currently describes the contact information for the "author" of a page or section of a page, whether that is a postal address, email address, name, telephone number, whatever. It seems the emerging answer is pretty much to keep the contextual link of "this is who wrote/owns this stuff", and use something like schema.org or hCard if you want to be explicit about something being a postal address - in part because that seems to be the strongest usage on the web today. If you have a great data source for this, in particular, that would be a useful contribution to the discussion. cheers -- Charles McCathie Nevile - web standards - CTO Office, Yandex chaals@yandex-team.ru - - - Find more at http://yandex.com
