It’s one year today since Bruce Lawson and James Craig published “hAccessibility“, about the misuse of the ‘abbr’ element in microformats (an issue I first raised on 20 September 2006 in Accessify Forums).
As recent events show, the microformats cabal still has its collective head up its own^W^W^W in the sand.
Despite suggestions for a workaround, a solution seems no nearer, thanks to their apparent indifference. Shame on them.
