Deprecated

2005-09-16:

The following class names have been deprecated in favor of singular names and the use of the "type" sub-property rather than class names for all of its values. hCard publishers MUST NOT use them as a class name.

plurals:
- additional-names, honorific-prefixes, honorific-suffixes, categories
type values:
- dom, intl, postal, parcel, home, work, pref, msg, voice, fax, cell, video, pager, bbs, modem, car, isdn, pcs, internet, x400
