tantek
and that leads me to find an example of why Google has given up on Google Code - it's gotten so badly spammed (due to bad design on Google Code's part) that rather than clean up their act, Google has chosen to give up. E.g. see comments on https://code.google.com/p/shortlink/wiki/Specification
#
tantek
which currently is the spec for rel=shortlink as documented in existing-rel-values
#
tantek
so we should probably just copy that spec (along with FAQ for the first few valid questions/comments) to http://microformats.org/wiki/rel-shortlink
#
tantek
apparently http://purl.org/net/shortlink links to it too
#
tantek
wonder how to get that fixed once Google Code goes away

This makes what, five different ways of putting a description in a meta tag
#
tantek
and this is why we avoid meta tags

An epidemic, to be sure
