Thanks Stéphane, it is good to get reminded for people like me, whose memory is failing:-) I would propose NOT to re-discuss this issue; we did it ad nauseam back then. I would propose to close this issue formally by adopting the resolution we took then, and move on.

In HTML5, @rel is used for many purposes ([1] and [2]), many of them are irrelevant to RDFa. When HTML authors use these values in @rel, they most likely don't do it with RDFa in mind, and in this context the behavior of @property should not change when a non-RDFa @rel is added to the same element. > > In other words, the following two paragraphs should generate the same triples: > <p vocab="http://schema.org/" typeof="Person"> > My name is <a href="http://example.com/" property="homepage">Stephane Corlosquet</a>. > </p> > <p vocab="http://schema.org/" typeof="Person"> > My name is <a href="http://example.com/" property="homepage" rel="me">Stephane Corlosquet</a>. > </p> > > This issue has been discussed on the mailing list [3] and then during the call on May 10th [4].

I found that very few are combining @property with @rel in the same element, and when they do, they always use cc:license in @rel. In other words, I could not find any example that would break with the option choosen above.
