There are currently 15 vocabulary terms in hProduct, but some of the
terms don't seem to be backed up in the hProduct analysis[1].
For example, MODEL shows up in 15% of the examples, but made it into the
vocabulary. However, DIMENSIONS shows up in 51% of the examples, COLOR
in 31% of the examples, but neither made it into the vocabulary. Why did
that happen?
Also - do we really think that VERSION is a good idea? Where on the page
are we going to use this? Are we suggesting that page authors should
version each of the hProduct instances? Does anybody actually use this
in practice?
