Thank you. I note you've changed the examples from:
 If the secondary classes are omitted, the two values MUST be
 comma separated and latitude MUST be first:
 <span class=geo>37.386013,-122.082932</span>
to:
 When used with an <abbr> element the latitude and longitude are
 separated by a semicolon in the title attribute.
 <abbr class="geo" title="37.386013;-122.082932">home</abbr>
which I have altered to :
 Coordinates MAY be combined a single <abbr> element; then the
 latitude and longitude MUST be separated by a semicolon in the
 title attribute and latitude MUST be first:
 <abbr class="geo" title="37.386013;-122.082932">home</abbr>
for clarity - but your example suggests that this only applies to
"abbr". Is it not allowed in other elements?
