Hello all,
The concept of referencing the user social sphere ("you","me","user" we name
it, and its 'relationships') to access their attributes through a dotted
notation is indeed valuable.
Would it be reasonable to use it in the value= instead of the name= as indeed
it intends to provides a placeholder to the value itself? Maybe through a
dedicated prefix to ensure correct parsing instead of pure text. The prefix
should be generic enough to encompass a variety of such references through
dotted notations.
Cheers
walter

Hi Toby
The dot syntax looks interesting, it reminds me a little of the
Microsoft VCARD_NAME documented on
http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-input-formats.
Could you point me to the documentation for grouping syntax in RFC 2425,
Google it with not much luck.
Thanks
Glenn
