[uf-new] The Process (was: hAudio case study)

[Mary Hodder]

I'd second that.

Even if users are just plopping blobs of data that is recognizable to  
humans when presented in a blog, but unstructured, we can still make  
sense
of those blobs and structure them.

Seeing what people want to do makes more sense that imposing from on  
high.  That is typical of standard's bodies and in practice not often  
followed.

For an example of this, where some standards from on high, are  
compared to some standards that emerged, in video metadata, see this:
