[uf-discuss] hCard Check / hCalendar question

[Brian Suda]

There is atleast one issue with the vcard and one or two possible tweaks.

1) the class="fn" is manditory for hCards (that is a requirement of
vCards not just hCards). Also because this is an organization, the
simplest thing to do is to change
class="org" to class="org fn" this will alert some Address Books that
this is a company and it will put the company name as 'display name'
or FN="Formatted Name"

A few minor other things:
<span class="region">CA</span> can be changed to:
<abbr title="California" class="region">CA</abbr>
this is not required, nor is it super important, it is just more
semantic and is personal preference.

In your ORG example you have it split into two sections (which is fine)
<div class="oragnization-name">Sprinkler Fitters U.A. Local 483</div>
<div class="organization-unit">Apprenticeship Training Center</div>

i wonder if what you are marking up as organization-unit should be
part of the address. There is an 'extended-address' so maybe
"apprenticeship training center" is best encoded that way.

   <div class="adr">
      <div class="extended-address">Apprenticeship Training Center</div>
    <div class="street-address">2531 Barrington Court</div>
    <span class="locality">Hayward</span>,
    <span class="region">CA</span>
    <span class="postal-code">94545</span>
</div>

You are also correct in that reoccuring dates are still up for debate
about how/if/the best way to encode them.

i hope this helps,
