The more I think about it, the more I realize that it *is* a deal-breaker for Creative Commons. After all, it's one of the driving use cases! Creative Commons is adopting RDFa because "license" was added as a reserved word more than 2 years ago, and it was understood for *years* that rel=RESERVED_WORD would yield a triple. I do have to apologize for somehow thinking this wouldn't be an issue last month. I was very very wrong. Saying that "parsers may wish to generate a triple if they want" doesn't solve the problem at all: when we tell publishers what RDFa to write, we need to ensure that *all* compliant parsers will find the triple. -Ben
