I believe you're wrong.  I'm not aware of any resolution to the  
outstanding issue of multi-word tags:

http://microformats.org/wiki/rel-tag-issues#Multi-word_tags

Here's my suggested resolution, with which I'm sure others will  
disagree: this is a non-issue because the meaning of tags is  
contextually dependent on the tag space, so there's no possibility for  
standardization around what tags mean, whether they're single- or  
multi-word.

Peace,
