17:11:21 [Zakim]
Julian, you wanted to state that incompaitble syntax for @rel is being defined (QName vs Cuie vs String/URI)
17:11:54 [MikeSmith]
Julian: we have 2 groups that have come up with 3 incompatible syntaxes for @rel
17:12:12 [Hixie]
rubys, yeah, agreed. seems like solving that problem solves the problem you mentioned automatically though, which is why it's relevant.

DanC, If you are looking for it ISSUE-60 is the one dealing with the XHTML namespace...
17:12:37 [MikeSmith]
DanC: the 1999 namespace is certainly overlap
17:13:21 [MikeSmith]
DanC: but beyond that, there is certainly the brand name
17:14:24 [DanC]
(overlap is discussed in the "architectural vision" thingy from March 2007 cited from http://www.w3.org/html/wg/#charter )
