#
uf-wiki-visitor hi all, quick question. Is it appropriate to combine microformat markup with microformat2 for compatibility? e.g. class="h-event vevent"
#
tantek uf-wiki-visitor: yes absolutely
#
gRegorLove Hi uf-wiki-visitor. I've seen that and the parsers are intended to be backwards compatible, so it shouldn't be a problem. Personally I just use mf2.
#
tantek in fact it is recomended practice for the main object of the page!
#
gRegorLove Oops
#
gRegorLove Interesting. I didn't know that it was recommended, tantek.
#
tantek gRegorLove: for legacy consuming search engines that don't yet (AFAIK) consume native uf2
#
tantek uf-wiki-visitor: here are some examples: http://microformats.org/wiki/microformats2#backward_compatible
#
tantek uf-wiki-visitor: you can also provide yours here if you'd like folks to take a look at it

#
Vendan hey tantek, <a href="test">test</a> inside a e-content, should that href be resolved?
#
Vendan for the 'html' part of the e-content
#
tantek Vendan probably better to use different strings
#
tantek rather than test/test ;)
#
tantek but yes implied <base> - that's a great question!
#
Vendan should it be <a href="http://example.org/test">test</a>
#
Vendan according to the current spec, seems it shouldn't

#
tantek right - which seems like it could pose problems for use-cases
#
tantek can you capture it as an issue? /wiki/microformats2-issues
#
tantek and use a different path other than /test ;)
#
tantek or different innertext
#
Vendan logically, I can see where it'd be useful/better that way, and the current microformats tests do expect it
#
Vendan just doesn't line up with the parsing spec itself
#
tantek do any of the parsers support that?
#
kylewm I have done it as a post-processing step after mf2py is done
#
kylewm part of mf2util https://github.com/kylewm/mf2util/blob/master/mf2util/util.py#L176
