Normativeness of the embedded form of JSON-LD

[iherman]

Section 4.28 of the draft defines JSON-LD embedded in HTML via the script tag. However, the section is marked as 'non-normative'.

In view of the importance of that format (e.g., this is the main format accepted by schema.org processors these days) we should consider giving it a normative status.

Is there a difference between this issue and #57?

[iherman]

Not really. Except that #57 says

We've discussed making this normative, requiring JSON-LD processors to be able to identify and extract JSON-LD from a script tag with type application/ld+json within the HTML document.

Ie, it discusses details to be decided upon provided this issue is accepted, ie, there is a resolution to turn that section in normative.

Maybe voting on this could be done by email, we can then close it and concentrate on #57 if the decision is a 'yes'.

Not really, my mistake for duplicating.

[gkellogg]

Agree we can close this, and then work on the details in #57, and we may need to break out the different points into separate issues.

👍 Closing, duplicate.
