[uf-discuss] input microformats for auto-filling forms

[Glenn Jones]

Hi Toby

The dot syntax looks interesting, it reminds me a little of the
Microsoft VCARD_NAME documented on
http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-input-formats.

Could you point me to the documentation for grouping syntax in RFC 2425,
Google it with not much luck.

Thanks 
Glenn
