You'll see from Sam's blog that it's plastered with Microformats. Why doesn't everyone on this list vote RDFa <g> Heh, I already did. Though truth be told I'm rather on the fence when it comes to RDFa because of the current ties to XHTML 2.0 (and QNames in attributes are ugly). On the other hand, browsers & a lot of people already support microformats as HTML and they can express perfectly good RDF given GRDDL (and eRDF, if need be). But I've been assured by people who's opinion I trust that RDFa is a Good Thing, so I try not to quibble ;-) [PW] I don't like the argument that appears to be forming; Microformats vs the Semantic Web. Doesn't make sense as it doesn't have to be one or the other and it doesn't make our job any easier. Cheers Paul
