That's correct considering the HTML 4 description of <dl>, but in XHTML  
2.0, it has been more restricted. A definition list should contain  
definitions of words. The definition of «Email address» is not  
«me@ocoth.id.au», but something like «A location to which e-mail can be  
delivered»[1].

I wrote something about this not more than two months ago: <url:
