Manu, in agreement with Thomas I have made a change on the backward compatibility paragraph in the proposed new charter[1]. It now reads: [[[ <p>Backwards compatibility with RDFa 1.0 is of great importance. That means, in general, that all triples that are produced via the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-syntax/">October 2008 version of RDFa</a>, should still be generated in the new version. For each new feature, if there is doubt or a perceived problem with respect to this, the guideline should be not to include the feature in the set of modifications. The two minor features the Working Group has identified and which may constitute possible exceptions to this rule, is the default XML Literal generation (see the <a href="http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-in-xhtml-tf/2009Jul/0159.html">proposal</a> and the corresponding thread for details), and the list of <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-rdfa-syntax-20081014/#relValues">predefined @rel/@rev values</a> that automatically generate triples (these predefined values are under re-evaluation by the HTML community, and inconsistencies may occur if all RDF triples are generated). </p> ]]] http://www.w3.org/2011/01/rdfa-wg-charter.html The charter is under W3M review right now, so it was the best possible time to put it there. Of course, the review may push back on this, but we shall see. There is also a similar sentence in the introduction.
