That's fine in some circumstances but vCard is not INSPIRE conformant. Again, this relates to the LOCADD CG which is currently being held up by a bit of EC bureaucracy.

Using a resource to identify a site, independent of the particular serialization conventions for its address, seems to me like a good thing (not that I'm biased or anything :)) and may be something that RegOrg could adopt.
