Surely with there being two versions already (HTML and RDF/XML),  
there is still opportunity for them to become out of sync. I don't  
see how adding RDFa to the HTML version makes that any worse.

The syncing problem is greatly reduced by using a script to generate  
one version from the other (whichever way around you choose to do  
it), which is indeed what is done for the FOAF spec.
