[uf-discuss] Microformats Cheatsheet

[David Janes -- BlogMatrix]

Ah, very exciting, very nice. The only suggestion I have off the top of 
my head is to make it more obvious where the uFs join together. Instead 
of "(hCard)" maybe "+ hCard", with hCard being bold or something?

I like the fact to that you show the nesting of the elements of the 
right hand side.

Regards, etc...
