I wasn't comparing microformats and RDFa.  I was comparing RDFa and
vcard.  There were thousands, maybe millions, of real-world vcards to
look at when developing the hcard microformat.  Where is the existing
RDFa data you would like incorporated into future microformat
development?  Can you provide some URLs where RDFa is being published
currently?  If so, you should add them to the relevant *-examples
pages on the wiki.  If not, RDFa is not yet a real-world publishing
concern, making it beyond the scope of microformats.  See:

http://microformats.org/about/

Specifically: "adapted to current behaviors."  As far as I can tell,
RDFa is not a current behavior so what you're suggesting is that
microformats should be adapted to future behaviors.

I'm honestly confused by your answers. I believe that there isn't a
single "behavior" adopted  by microformats that was already embedded
in HTML. Everyone of them existed as its own proprietary format and
were retooled to be embedded in XHTML. RDFa is to these formats
exactly what uF is to them, a method for embedding them into HTML. Am
I missing something?
