I have pushed a new ED with the changes requested. It is available at http://www.w3.org/2010/02/rdfa/drafts/2010/ED-rdfa-core-20100414/ Thanks!

Although I could convince myself that all is there in terms of a specification, I think we should have a section which clearly specifies what SafeCURIEorCURIEorURI means. At the moment, it goes to a text in the appendix that says "A single SafeCURIE or CURIEorURI"; the latter says "A URI or a CURIE". (This is actually misleading because one could read that as an order in processing, ie, URI first and then a CURIE, which is not true.). That is all.

All these attributes map, after processing, to URI-s[RFC-XXXX].
