Hello,
I'm new to the list and just learning about microformats. Cool stuff.
My question / proposal is this.
Please read the process
http://microformats.org/wiki/process
Is there and should there be something I will refer to as an alias
(hAlias)?
No.
The motivation to have and offer one's alias is to maintain a
greater level of privacy. Suppose I want to give someone a way to
contact me without divulging all my vital (more permanent and personal)
attributes. Sort of a disposable email, or such...
Basically, I want a way to introduce myself and provide some contact
information without requiring a full disclosure.
Schema-wise this is really just a handle, optional description, and URL.
The information you put in your hCard is up to you. You can just write
an hCard with a nickname, url, a disposable e-mail address and whatever
description you like. There is no reason to define a new format for that.
