Rename 'rev' to 'modified' to better reflect its purpose and conform to established conventions.

NatAtGeni commented 12 years ago

I think this is fine. 'rev' was borrowed from microformats.

How about this one? @nunjudd? @RobertGardner?

ninjudd commented 12 years ago

Fine with me. Should it be lastModified?

Isn't that kinda redundant? Why would it ever be any other kind of "modified"?

RobertGardner commented 12 years ago

My opinion is not strong on this one, but I too prefer 'modified'.

ninjudd commented 12 years ago

I don't have a strong opinion either. Just wanted to consider alternatives. Another possibility is modifiedAt since that indicates it is a date rather than a boolean.

For consistency with schema.org names, perhaps modifiedDate would be best.

ninjudd commented 12 years ago

I like consistency.
