RE: Optimus - microformats parser

Is that a bug? The parsing rules at
http://mic
roformats.org/wiki/hcard-parsing
seem pretty unambiguous:

"For all properties, when the element for a property
is:

    * <abbr title>: use the value of the 'title'
attribute. If there is no
'title' attribute then use the contents of the
element."

So am I right in understanding that a parser should always
ignore the
contents of <abbr>? In which case, do the parsing
rules need revisiting?

I've found a bug :-(

For:

        <http://www.westmidlandbirdclub.com/birmingham/indoor
.htm>

Optimus is rendering the postal code in:

        <span class="postal-code">
          <abbr class="geo"
title="52.4703;-1.9239">
            B15 3AF
          </abbr>
        </span>

as:

       
<postal-code>52.4703;-1.9239</postal-code>

and likewise where that postal code is part of an
hCalendar's
"location".

except that in this case, the postal-code element is not
<abbr>, but
<span>, and it has no title.
