- misterbwong 12y agoThis article is saying the Microdata spec for semantic markup is dying (schema.org shows Microdata, RDFa and JSON-LD). RDFa/RDFa Lite is still active. Having worked with both Microdata and RDFa formats, I'm glad Microdata is dying-RDFa Lite is much simpler to implement. The Microdata spec is unnecessarily verbose and, as the article said, RDFa Lite can do everything Microdata can do & more. Hopefully having a single spec in the future can cut down the confusion and increase adoption of semantic markup.
