Issues Template

Consider using this format (copy and paste this to the end of the list to add your issues; replace ~~~ with an external link if preferred) to report issues or feedback, so that issues can show up in hAtom subscriptions of this issues page. If open issues lack this markup, please add it.

Please post one issue per entry, to make them easier to manage. Avoid combining multiple issues into single reports, as this can confuse or muddle feedback, and puts a burden of separating the discrete issues onto someone else who 1. may not have the time, and 2. may not understand the issue in the same way as the original reporter.

• 1. hMedia should not be marked as a "Draft" for the following reasons:
     1. It has not gone through a media-info-proposal stage of the Microformats Process.
        • Please see: http://microformats.org/wiki/media-info-proposal
     2. There has been hardly any discussion regarding the attributes selected for the vocabulary.
        • Please see: http://microformats.org/wiki/hmedia#History, and http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-new/2008-November/001866.html
     3. It is a bad idea to formalize hMedia until at least hVideo and hImage has been completed.
        • It is unrealistic a hMedia proposal to Wait until hVideo and hVideo is completed as there has been no Interest or activity in either of those formats
     4. Marking hMedia a Draft may confuse new Microformats users into believing that it has as much thought put into it as geo, hAtom or hResume.
        • There has Please see again: http://microformats.org/wiki/hmedia#History although incomplete at this time documents over three years of discussion.
