Fwd: RDFa 1.1 is a W3C Recommendation

See below.

With this our last official business for this group is done. W3M should officially close the WG (its charter has long expired, b.t.w.).

Thanks for all the work on these now and in the past. I believe we had a good time:-)

> Dear Advisory Committee Representative,

> I am pleased to announce the advancement of four RDFa 1.1 documents to Recommendations:
> 
>  HTML+RDFa 1.1 - Second Edition
>  http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/REC-html-rdfa-20150317/
> 
>  RDFa Core 1.1 - Third Edition
>  http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/REC-rdfa-core-20150317/
> 
>  RDFa Lite 1.1 - Second Edition
>  http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/REC-rdfa-lite-20150317/
> 
>  XHTML+RDFa 1.1 - Third Edition
>  http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/REC-xhtml-rdfa-20150317/

> All Members who responded to the Call for Review [1] of the Proposed Recommendations except one supported the publication of those specifications as W3C Recommendations. One Member, Yandex, objected saying the conformance section for RDFa Lite 1.1 - Second Edition <https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/33280/RDFa11-PER/results#xspec3> was too minimal.
> 
> The non-normative section 2 of the specification indicates the RFDa Lite attributes are conformant to the ones defined in RDFa Core 1.1 <http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-core> and also pre-defines a number of prefixes, but this is not reflected adequately in normative section 3.1, Document Conformance. However, the changes in the Proposed Edited Recommendation did not affect the conformance section and that section remains identical to the previously published Recommendation. Accordingly, it is still appropriate to update the Recommendation. The two issues are noted as errata in the status section in the new Recommendation and W3C is expected to address these errata in a future update per Process 2014, as the changes to the conformance section would not introduce new features.
> 
> Please join us in thanking the RDFa Working Group [2] for their hard work and congratulating them on this achievement.
> 
> This announcement follows section 8.1.2 [3] of the W3C Process Document.
