Just found via a google alert:

> SILICON VALLEY, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- September 12, 2006 -- On the  
> heels of its official launch, Social Media Club (SMC) formed the  
> Media Release Working Group to develop the hRelease, a new standard  
> for modernizing the traditional press release for a Web-centric world.
>
> The Media Release Working Group will work closely with the  
> Microformats community, while evaluating other technologies such as  
> XPRL, XBRL and NewsML to establish a standard way of organizing,  
> tagging, distributing and sharing "official" organizational  
> communications among blogs and other online communities. The group  
> intends to present an initial draft specification on Nov. 2 at the  
> Society for New Communications Research Symposium in Boston.

... and so on...

I know there's been discussions of this "social media release"  
elsewhere on the interweb, but is there anyone here who's involved in  
the process?
