Jon Aizen is still awake and here is the anwser:

the good news:
--------------------
he is excited about microformats and wants to implement them in the
dapper html output. defenitly a "go" he said. GREAT!

the bad news:
--------------------
he asked me, if I want to do it by myself, because it would be faster
and he's not so into the hole microformat thing ;) I am a informationc
architect and not a programmer - so I don't wanna touch it from the
code part - i can only support it from the format side.

Any volunteers out there, who wanna help out with programming skills?

Thanks,
Sebastian

know what? accidental I just had a chat with Jon Aizen from Dapper and
I explained microformats to him, because he had not heard of them,
yet!

(allways a surprise to me, if somebody hasn't hear of them at all)

It would be very easy for him to use the field and group names, you
can define and nest within Dapper by yourself, for the class names of
the html output of dapper.

Tatatataaaaaa - there you are: Than everybody could create a
microformated html output of every singel website - that would be
great, wouldn't it?

I am only waiting for a feasibilty check from his site - but this
can't be rocketscience for him, I think ...

... so I am excited ... I will keep you informed ;)
