Right, +1 to the idea and Martin for proposing it and Toby for modifying it to re-use a pre-existing RDFa term. Ben does have a point that this doesn't solve the Google vocabulary issue. This is effectively the "default prefix declaration mechanism" discussion... Toby had raised it earlier in the year: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-in-xhtml-tf/2010Jan/0019.html The discussion has also been raised several times before in the RDFa TF telecon. So, I don't think this is a replacement for RDFa Profiles, but could be another way for authors to markup content when all of the terms that they want to use come from one vocabulary (for example, FOAF, Dublin Core or VCard). The fact that you don't have to dereference anything, but get to use short keywords is definitely a positive aspect of the proposal. -- manu -- Manu Sporny (skype: msporny, twitter: manusporny) President/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. blog: PaySwarming Goes Open Source http://blog.digitalbazaar.com/2010/02/01/bitmunk-payswarming/
