That is the eventual goal - still organizing the page, which has been
updated to reflect the conversation yesterday and today (6 new use cases):

http://rdfa.info/wiki/rdfa-use-cases

The use cases will be modified to remove RDF/RDFa in the problem
descriptions. We should probably have a section for each
problem/use-case that states "This is how it is solved in RDFa" and
"This is how it is solved using current web technologies". There should
probably be a pro/con section for each approach as well, just to point
out the high-level difficulties with each approach.

Another Q/A page has been started concerning questions surrounding RDFa,
including common red-herrings and repeated discussions (with answers)
that can be avoided when discussing what RDFa can and cannot do:

http://rdfa.info/wiki/common-arguments-against-rdfa

Help in filling out both pages would be greatly appreciated.
