[uf-discuss] Microformat h-names contradict the process documentation

[Andriy Drozdyuk]

I see the microformats in the upcoming drafts section all named:
hAtom, hAudio, hListing, hMedia, hNews, hProduct, hRecipe, hResume, hReview

While in the actual documentation:
http://microformats.org/wiki/process

one can find this philosophy:
"DO NOT start with even labeling your effort "hXYZ". This is a very
common mistake."

What is the purpose of naming things with "h" prefixes and using all
kinds of abbreviations? (e.g. "adr" instead of "address").
It's already on the web (hence html) - shouldn't it be clear that it's (h)tml?

I was just wandering if anyone else ever thought about it, or am I
just being silly, or missing something?
Thanks,
