Hi,

For the cObj Menu some parts can be seen as secondary navigation or 
in-page navigation. These parts need to have a <nav> element. We might 
discuss here what does not need the <nav> and what does.

These are the possibilities:
* Menu of selected pages (arguable, could be related pages and then it's 
not recommended)
* Menu of subpages of selected pages (arguable, could be related pages 
and then it's not recommended)
* Menu of subpages of selected pages including abstracts (arguable, 
could be related pages and then it's not recommended)
* Menu of subpages of selected pages including sections (arguable, could 
be related pages and then it's not recommended)
* Section index (Needs nav)
* Recently updated pages (no nav)
* Related pages (based on keywords) (no nav)
* Sitemap (Needs nav)

Could you give your opinion about these possibilities?

Cheers

Patrick
