Your insistance that <address> is
only for information on the author is wrong. I've already shown
that the W3C itself says <address> is for use *by* authors for
contact information about the document or part of the document.

I have shown that the HTML specification says "information on
author" _three times_ when describing the <address> elements.
There's little point in any discussion if you keep misrepresenting
the facts.

You are correct that this discussion is at an end, but not due to my
misrepresenting the facts as I have not. The specification also says
what I have quoted. You insist on going by a short definition rather
than the expanded information also provided by the same body.

Use <address> for whatever you like, and <blockquote> for
indentation and <h6> for small text if you like, but if you claim in
public that such usage is semantically correct, stay tuned to
getting responses that indicate that you are wrong.


Your responses. I've seen nobody else obsessing over such detail
ignoring all other as you have. If I am wrong, and I see other
responses showing that, I am certainly man enough to admit my
failings. Fact is, I am not wrong. You just fail to read the entire
specification. Apparantly, to you, the entire writings of the W3C are
the first few lines of each element, ignoring the rest. Some of us
read a bit beyond the first few lines in order to learn what the
authors meant by those first few lines.

I'll continue to learn (sometimes, even from you), and you can
continue to hide your head in the sand learning nothing new.
