=== Field details ===
=== Field details ===
The fields of the projecta schema represent the following:
The fields of the projecta schema represent the following:


'''version''':: This optional field permits projecta publishers to specify a particular version of projecta that their content uses. This field is syntax compatible with, and thus reuses the semantics of "VERSION" as defined in vCard RFC2426 section "3.6.9 VERSION Type Definition".  The value of this field for this specification is "0.1".
==== fn ====


'''summary''':: This optional field serves as a one sentence summary of the project.
The title of a single project. The formatted name of what the projecta documents.


'''type''':: This optional field "type" provides the type of project, one of the following: abstract, practical.  If omitted, then in some cases the project type may be inferred. For projects of type "abstract" {{should}} have "goals" and/or "accomplishments" fields completed. For projects of type "practical" {{should}} have "instructions" field completed.
* The element is identified by class name <code>fn</code>.
* A projecta {{must}} include a <code> fn </code>.
* The element {{must}} follow the conventions outlined in [[hCard]].


'''project''':: This required field {{must}} have at a minimum the name ("fn" - the formatted text corresponding to the name) of ''the'' project (a projecta describes only one project), {{may}} provide at least one URI ("url") for the project, and {{may}} provide at least one URL to a photo or depiction ("photo") of the project. However, when using item info subproperties ("fn", "url", "photo"), they {{must}} be nested <em>inside</em> the project element.
==== summary ====


'''author''':: This optional field specifies the person who authored the project.  If the author is specified, an hCard representing the author {{must}} be provided.
The summary provides a short introduction to or an accompanying statement about the project.


'''description''':: This optional field contains the full text representing the input of the author. The field {{may}} include valid HTML markup (e.g. paragraphs).  User agents {{should}} preserve any markup.
* The element is identified by the class name <code>summary</code>.
* A projecta {{may}} include a <code>summary</code>.
* The element {{must}} follow the conventions outlined in [[hCalendar]].


'''goals''':: This optional field documents the project's goals.
==== author ====


'''instructions''':: This optional field documents the instructions required to complete the project. Re-used from [[hrecipe|hRecipe]].
The person who authored the project.


'''accomplishments''':: This optional field documents the project's accomplishments.
* The element is identified by class name <code>author</code>.
* A projecta {{may}} include one or more <code>author</code> elements.
* The contents of the element {{must}} follow the conventions outlined in [[hCard]].


'''requirements''':: This optional field contains the requirements of the project. The field {{may}} include links to products or other projects.
==== published ====


'''tags''':: Tags are represented using a list of keywords or phrases (using the [[rel-tag]] microformat for each individual keyword or phrase tag) that the author associates with the project.
The date the project was published.


'''permalink''':: This optional field is a URL for the projecta.  In addition to using the <code><a href></code> tag for this field, the attribute <code>rel="self bookmark"</code> {{must}} be used to indicate that the hyperlink is a permalink for the project itself.  If the hyperlink already contains a <code>rel</code> attribute, then the values <code>self</code> and <code>bookmark</code> {{must}} be included among the space-separated set of values in the attribute. Indexers {{may}} treat the permalink of a project as a unique ID in order to identify and collate the same project from multiple sources (such as indexing a page multiple times).  The permalink {{may}} also be used to indicate or imply the origin of the project. Authors {{may}} use the classname of "permalink" on the element representing the permalink.
* The element is identified by the class name <code>published</code>.
* A projecta {{may}} include a <code>published</code> date.
* The element {{must}} follow the conventions outlined in [[hAtom]].
* The [[datetime-design-pattern]] {{should}} be used to encode the published datetime.
* The element is considered ''experimental'' and may be removed from the final specification.


==== tag ====


=== markup sample ===
A keyword indicating a subject or an important aspect of the project like it's main requirement, type of project etc.
<strong>Note: this markup sample is not based on any [[project-examples]] implied schema, and therefore is an <em>a priori</em> brainstorm that is not suitable for a microformat.</strong>

A good way to describe the structure, is to look at it trough the view of CSS selectors. Designers sometimes need wrappers, which makes it hard to keep a strict structure. If you used jQuery, you know what I mean.
The time it takes to complete the project described by the projecta. Multiple duration fields can be used to denote time taken per instruction.

Please, keep the format simple. The current brainstorms above don't follow an existing standard (existing standards must first be documented in [[project-formats]] before proceeeding). It is preferable to re-use and develop minimal modules rather than being verbose. Are these bad or good for example: the uuid:.. or scm:// ones ?

Project

This is a page for tracking the effort to develop a project microformat for authors and publishers to markup public projects like open-source software or other kinds of artistic distributions.

View each individual page as the main page omits some content.

Per the microformats process. Start always with number one.
