Re: best practice RDF in HTML

Dear Mark,
my main concerns are:
1. What are the best practices to include invisible RDFa in an HTML 
document. I think Keith answered that. Maybe at the end of the body 
would be the most unobtrusive way.  The same question was raised here: 
http://answers.semanticweb.com/questions/10161/is-visually-hidden-rdfa-an-anti-pattern 

I just wanted to reassure that hidden RDFa is not contradicting the 
intention of RDFa.
Are there any practical disadvantages (besides the obvious increase in 
byte size)?

2. Are there any alternatives to RDFa to include RDF in HTML ?

All the best,
Sebastian
