No reason that can't be put into WP core. In fact, I'd recommend anyone in or near the Bay Area (or remote via IRC) to participate in this weekend's WordCamp (wordcamp.org).
All the lead devs will be in one place as well as a large contingent of the community and if there were ever a group of folks to present a unified message about the usefulness of the further adoption of microformats, it'd be these kats. For my part, I'll be in Boston doing my best to convince the Wikimaniacs of the power and importance of microformats. ;) Chris On 8/3/06, Pete Prodoehl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
