What is a 'vocabulary'

[chaals]

I think the outstanding bit of the question is covered by #50

If so, we could close this... @danbri, @iherman

[gkellogg]

In Microdata to RDF a vocabular is established via @itemtype. There is a mechanism to make document-relative URIs if there is no established type. The first version had some arcane URI-building logic to support hcard (IIRC), but that was trimmed in the second version. Most of the logic for building URIs is in Generate Predicate URI.

This should be more or less resolved by #49 - effectively, we don't really say how to define a vocabulary, you can do it how you want. We do note that you can use e.g. prose or something like RDF.

fixed by #49 and #51
