12. FAQ Correction re applyUntil / applyTo URL vs identifiers for hyperlinks [use URL] XHTML is permitted in specified descriptive text fields only; badly formed HTML is not permitted! In XHTML, bulleted lists and other formatting options are allowed; use of scripts, images and other multimedia elements are a security risk, so are deprecated. If a definite start date is not known, the @dtf attribute on or is not required. Some elements are ‘inheritable’. No need to repeat in is same as in.

13. Issues raised and currently under discussion Telephone number format URIs as (course) identifiers Address format Field sizes / character limits Images Namespaces Feed locations / cool URIs OTHER QUESTIONS Publishing format(s) for the documents Version control
