> Sorry, I don't understand what you are after. Perhaps you can give a use case for how the "value of a property" is used? At a rough guess, though, isn't what you are after really the definition of the property itself? i.e., TEL means that its value is a telephone number, as specified by the property definition.

We are working on the best way to model property parameters in the vCard Ontology [1].

In the default syntax there is no "attribute" that says and here is the value of the property.

In the XML syntax, the value of the property gets represented in another element, like:

     <email>
         <text>simon.perreault@viagenie.ca</text>
      </email>
