If it's possible to produce RDF triples from microdata, and if RDF triples of interest can be expressed with microdata, why does it matter if the concrete syntax is the same as RDFa? Isn't the important thing about RDF the data model, not the surface syntax? (I understand that if the microdata syntax offered no advantages over RDFa, then it would be a wasted effort to diverge. But my impression is that you'd object to anything that isn't exactly identical to RDFa, even if it can easily be used in the same way.) Regards, Maciej
