[on why the use of rel="bookmark" links in :

might be incorrect)

I'd be grateful for a consensus, or at least others' thoughts, on this,
please, before I mark-up the rest of the page.

Yes.

Thank you, but that simply isn't going top happen. I'm not going to
start repeating content on the page, just o shoehorn it into an
otherwise-incompatible microformat. I thought the whole point of
microformats is that there should be no need to do so?
