In the second case, the author did not mean to stop chaining by > specifying rel="foobarrel". Looking at the whole markup: <div about="" rel="dc:creator"> <div rel="foobarrel" href="ben.jpg" /> </div> I don't think we can justify connecting dc:creator to <ben.jpg>, especially when a different *value* of @rel would break that connection. There's not other situation where that happens in RDFa: triple structure is affected by the *presence* of attributes, never by their specific value. Sure, a triple might disappear if @rel goes from valid to invalid CURIE, but the *other* triples whose predicate are specified elsewhere are not affected. -Ben
