This page is here to document proposals that have been made one time or another that were simply reinventing functionality already present in semantic (X)HTML, [http://playonlineroulettegame.co.uk roulette game] in the hopes that by documenting attempts to reinvent the wheel, we can avoid or minimize re-re-inventions, and encourage re-use instead.

At some point perhaps we can order these more specifically by date. For now, [http://europeanrouletteonlinegame.co.uk roulette games] I'm putting everything under 2005. - [http://tantek.com/log/ Tantek]

== 2005 ==

=== rel mobile ===

[http://blog.bulknews.net/kwiki/?LinkRelMobile rel="mobile"] is a reinvention of:

<pre><link rel="alternate" media="handheld" ... /></pre>

''But Atom doesn't have the 'media' attribute.''
* Then the solution is to add the 'media' attribute, rather than reinventing another way of doing media, OR to simply use a XHTML namespace qualifed <link> [http://www.casinodicecards.com casino cards] tag which can then have the media attribute. In either case, [http://www.addurcasino.com casino online] adding a new rel value is both unnecessary and undesirable.

=== item ===

The so-called [http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-discuss/2005-October/001364.html "item" microformat] is a reinvention of <code><li></code>.

== before 2005 ==

=== OPML ===
[http://www.opml.org/spec OPML] is a reinvention of <code><ul></code>, [http://onlinefreecasinos.co.uk/ casinos] <code><ol></code>, <code><li></code>, as demonstrated by [[xoxo]].
