Raising this against HTML5 spec for now as recommended by Sam Ruby
(http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2010Feb/0411.html).

The Status sections for RDFa-in-HTML and Microdata should be clear about the
status in the WG, and their relation with respect to the HTML5 spec.

I propose to use something similar to what the RDFa editor's draft has:

"The publication of this document by the W3C as a W3C Working Draft does not
imply endorsement by the W3C HTML Working Group or the W3C as a whole. In
particular,

    * There are one or more alternate methods of adding data without using
RDFa, such as [microdata].
    * There are discussions of alternate extensibility mechanisms, covered in
[issue-41], which might allow other ways of integrating RDFa.
    * There is concern that continued development of this document belongs in a
different working group." 

That being said, other wording would be ok as well, as long as it's consistent
in both specs.
