Closing issues that may have consensus

Hi folks,

We didn't have enough people to meet quorum on the call today so Ivan,
Steven and I discussed how we could better meet our Last Call deadline
for RDFa Core by the end of October 2010.

At present, the rate at which we are going through issues on the call
and the rate at which we're generating issues is not conducive to us
meeting the LC deadline.

The RDFa API is not going to make our Last Call deadline by October
2010... there is just too much that is up in the air. It'll perhaps be
one or two months later, Nov-Dec 2010 time-frame.

We have a number of issues that have general consensus that probably
don't need discussion on the telecon. The reasons may be that we have
already touched on the issues through other discussions or that we have
more-or-less resolved the issues, but have not recorded a resolution on
the telecon because a key RDFa WG participant was not available.

I'm going to try to provide proposals for issues that probably should be
closed based on discussions that we've had over the past 8-10 months.
We'll keep the comment period open for 7-14 days per issue to ensure
that nobody objects to the issue being closed.

I've checked with Ivan and Steven and this is kosher per the W3C
process... so let's see if we can make more progress on the issue list
in the coming months using this approach coupled with addressing the
more involved issues via the telecon.
