[microformats-discuss] Announcing microformats discovery brainstorming

[Bud Gibson]

Dear all:

Josh Porter raised the great issue of how UAs and developers might  
discover microformats.  This is key for hacking new applications  
based on microformats.  Applications will ultimately lead to wider  
adoption.  I tried to summarize the list's discussion on this wiki page:

http://microformats.org/wiki/xmdp-brainstorming

I cover several proposals plus raise the issue of parsing user data.   
Many of the prototype discovery mechanisms like Brian Suda's X2V  
depend on having a decent DOM tree.  May not happen.

I would really like to get some participation in editing and  
authoring the page.  The activity on the list suggests this is a hot  
topic.

Bud
