Director,

The Semantic Web Deployment and XHTML2 Working Groups request
transition to Proposed Recommendation for

    RDFa in XHTML: Syntax and Processing
    http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/CR-rdfa-syntax-20080620

(updated editor's draft in
http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/2008/ED-rdfa-syntax-20080814/ )

The record of the groups' decisions to requests this transition are [1,2].

    [1] http://www.w3.org/2008/08/20-xhtml-minutes.html#item03
    [2] http://www.w3.org/2008/08/26-swd-minutes.html#item03

No substantive issues were raised during CR, though several
comments resulted in editorial clarifications to the specification.
Changes from the Candidate Recommendation version are given in [3].

There were no features at risk.

The requirements have not changed since Candidate Recommendation.

This specification has no normative references to W3C specifications
that are not yet Proposed Recommendations.

The Groups' implementation report [4] notes 9 implementations, four
of which pass all of the tests in the test suite. All comments have
received formal responses; these are recorded in the issue tracker [5]
and will be summarized in a disposition of comments to appear
soon [6]. The specification has therefore met the CR exit criteria.

    [5] http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/track/issues
    [6] http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/RDFa/cr-issues

There have been no formal objections.

There have been no changes to the patent disclosure pages since
the transition to Candidate Recommendation. There are no open
exclusion opportunities.
