Description Maciej Stachowiak 2010-02-14 06:30:03 UTC 
Section 2.1 Modifying the Input Document is labeled as informative but has what appear to be some MAY-level requirements. Either the section should be labeled normative, or some other word besides "may" ought to be used to make clear that no conformance statement is intended.

Status: Fixed

Change Description: 

This section has been moved to Section 3.2 and is now normative:

http://dev.w3.org/html5/rdfa/drafts/ED-rdfa-in-html-20100502/#modifying-the-input-document

Rationale:

Modifying the input document per the HTML5 rules has been turned into a normative requirement to ensure that the triples extracted from a document are consistent across all parsers that support the HTML5 DOM and/or Infoset.
