This has been a long thread with cross-mailing lists usage. This also included the rdfa working group mailing list and, I presume, many who have sent a mail are not subscribed to that list. As a consequence, some of the mails ended up on the moderator's (ie mine) mailbox waiting for the original submitters to go through the unfortunate-but-necessary anti-spam measures. I decided to redirect all the hold up mails to the public-rdfa-wg list manually which, though messed up the threads slightly, made at least the thread complete for those who read only one of the mailing lists...
