That's precisely what I was aiming for with my list of suggestions for further work. If it wasn't clear, we should clarify the text. > I do suspect the same thing applies to the RDFa/Microdata and canvas/SVG/CSS situations, but that's getting into areas I'm not really up to speed on and don't wish to debate with the TAG. FWIW I think that the canvas/SVG/CSS situation is well on its way to being fixed with most involved parties happy with the current direction. -- Robin Berjon - http://berjon.com/ - @robinberjon
