Re: [Comment on xml-i18n-bp WD] 2.3 meta vs. non-meta

Hi Richard, Elliotte,

I agree with what Richard said. Just one additional comment on a remark
from Elliotte.

It should not be an attribute, to be able to attach any kind of meta
information. For example, to my knowledge RDF/A, see
http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/WD-xhtml-rdfa-primer-20060310/ , does not
allow for specifying meta information about attributes.

IN XHTML2, there is no @alt attribute, see
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml2/mod-image.html#edef_image_img .

Hope that helps,

Felix
