Indeed, discussion should be focused on the contents of actual proposals. With respect to Shelley's original question, I will note that both submitted Change Proposals cite RDFa extensively in their rationale. It is fair game to discuss and question the rationale for either or both change proposals. And that may entail references to RDFa, even though changing what we are doing with RDFa is not suggested in either proposal. > > With respect to issue 76, at the present time, I don't see unanimity > in the working group, as such, I expect that we will need to follow > the following process: > > http://www.w3.org/2005/10/Process-20051014/policies#managing-dissent This does seem likely.
