Calling it stuff Ian is "personally interested in" seems unnecessarily inflammatory. This are all use cases that other people have put forward. However, as others, I'd prefer to see these things developed elsewhere. Mostly because the group of people with expertise in developing a better version of bibtex is not the people in this WG. I do think it's important to show that microdata is able to express something like bibtex. And I do think that the discussion in the past weeks have been interesting since people haven't actually been finding problems in microdatas ability to express something like bibtex, but rather in the exact bibtex format itself. But the exact microdata format does not seem productive to have here. It seems completely orthogonal to the rest of HTML, so there seems to be no win to put it in the HTML 5 spec. If bibtex-in-microdata can't gather enough interest outside of the HTML 5 spec, it probably is a bad spec. / Jonas
