Feedback
--------

Since this is an official Working Group response to your issue, and
since the group is under an extremely tight deadline, we would really
appreciate it if you responded immediately to this e-mail and let us
know if the findings and decision made by the group is acceptable to you
as soon as possible.

Liam, Alex, for the purposes of this particular issue, you have already
acknowledged that the changes to address the RDFa Lite abstract and the
list processing rules are okay. Alex, you have not acknowledged whether
or not the changes explaining about="[]" work for you. Please do so as
soon as possible.
