[uf-discuss] Microformats opening blurb...

[Joe Andrieu]

There doesn't seem to be much of a place on the wiki to discuss changing the
main blurb. It is more of a place to present various ways to talk about
microformats. All of which are good, but which leaves the question about how
we, as a community, evolve the primary communications vehicles.  

My thinking parallels yours, dg.  Humans first means authors first, and in
particular the non-developer mainstream folks for whom XML/XSLT options are
just too complicated, e.g., the canonical soccer mom with this year's
schedule of practices and games.

And the "main" blurb that propagated to the hResume+WordPress announcement
is exceedingly abstract, IMO.
