[Fwd: Re: [jira] Commented: (FOR-1052) Add class attributes to the html generated by the FOAF plugin for later CSS styling]

I replied to the jira message, and it didn't bounce and didn't
appear in jira, did I do something wrong?

cheers

The value of mbox_sha1sum, unlike all the other values is a SHA1
hash, which every interfaces uses a  monospaced font for.

This was the motivating example for this entire patch, but there are
other uses, which rely (as this one does) on the fact that the data
type of the value is fixed by FOAF/DOAP and there is the opportunity
to add CSS styling or javascript to make the value more useful.

I don't know if our Jira instance accepts comments via email,
certainly it should bounce if it doesn't. Unless someone expands on
this here, I'll take it to the infra list.

I'll address your comment in a different thread.
