14:31:16 <ivan> Work on this document represents unfinished work of the RDF Web Application Working Group. The work could not be finished due to a lack of manpower, and, at the time of publishing this document, it is not known whether W3C will continue this work on Recommendation track in another Working Group. While a significant amount of design work went into this document, at present there are no known implementations of the specification. A number of design issues have not been completely resolved. Developers wishing to implement this API should be aware of incomplete nature of the specification.

14:53:33 <manu1> manu: There is a question on which group will continue publishing the HTML5+RDFa spec and when it will become REC. Officially, it will become a REC in 2014, but we might try to make it a REC before that time frame. All of us can continue to work on it in the HTML5 WG in any case. We may try to re-charter this group to take it to REC as well. This discussion will continue in W3C as they try to figure out the best path forward for HTML5 and RDFa.
