I got confused by trying to solve multiple problems in the
same
thread. And I'm still a little confused. Looking back
through the
thread with a clearer understanding of your proposal, I'm
not clear
on what the use cases are for related hCards other than the
authoritative relationship we started with. Those use cases
should
probably be documented in the wiki somewhere, along with
some
examples of real-world publishing, so we have some point of
reference
to keep everyone who is interested in this topic on the same
page.
Also, can we stop sending emails with "authoritative
hCard" as the
subject when that's not really what the email is about? If
we ever
do arrive at a rough consensus, it would be helpful if
someone could
see the process that lead us there.
Peace,
Scott
