[microformats-discuss] Brainstorming on a "resume" microformat

[Michael Gorsuch]

I was thinking of this earlier this week.  Why not keep it as simple
as possible:

Can we embed an hcard for contact info, and essentially leave room for
a 'body' or 'content' attribute that would house the resume itself.

The point is to make it easy to aggregate, correct?  So just keep the
format very lean, and allow 'recruiters' search for certain keywords
in the 'content' via their aggregation system.
