Hi, folks- I got an action to add our sitemap [1] to Google Webmaster Tools, which I have done. One of the other tips they have is inserting "rich snippets" (microdata or RDFa Lite) [2]; the specific use they have for this is to split out search results into structured results. They don't currently pull out technical documentation for display on search result pages, but I would love for them to do so for our data... search Google or Bing for "WPD border-radius" and it could show the summary, syntax, and values right there in the search results, with links to examples and compatibility tables. That would be cool. Since Google/Bing doesn't have that now, adding markup like this is a low priority, but I thought I'd put a bug in your ear. There are a few vocabularies that might be suitable for marking up our data [3], and we could even work on expanding those.
