If [profile attribute][1] was dropped, could it be replaced by
something else?
If can't be replaced by something else, why it is really fundamental
to keep it?
Example:
* with profile attribute
<head profile="http://dublincore.org/documents/dcq-html/ http://
gmpg.org/xfn/11">
* without profile attribute
<LINK rel="profile dcq-html"
type="text/html"
href="http://dublincore.org/documents/dcq-html">
<LINK rel="profile xfn"
type="text/html"
href="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
I wonder if authoring tools (CMS, forms, standalone applications)
make it easier to edit the link more than head. I should try to
review that.
