There's a contradiction between the HTML 5 CR and the RDFa Core 1.1 over the status of the REV attribute From HTML5 CR and 5.1 nightly: 11.2 Non-conforming features" "The following attributes are obsolete (though the elements are still part of the language), and must not be used by authors: "rev on a elements" "rev on link elements RDFa Core 1.1 - Second Edition says: "RDFa supports the use of @rel and @rev on any element" http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/REC-rdfa-core-20130822/#examples http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/REC-rdfa-core-20130822/#A-rev >On Fri, Apr 18, 2014 at 7:13 AM, Michael[tm] Smith <mike@w3.org> wrote: >The validator now accepts full RDFa 1.1 markup in HTML documents.

Thanks, I've removed it from the list of obsolete attributes in CR. I'm keeping this bug open because the change will have to be ported to master.
