Can you elaborate?

Without > clean understandable URLs, Microformats are far less useful, IMO. --- sorry, i can't find a reference, but somewhere there was a big discussion about ROBOTS.TXT, and FAVICON.ICO, while having a standard name is helpful, it has also created a "reserved" word out of those file names. I personally like the way RSS Autodiscovery works, you can name the file (or files) anything you want and simply point to those. I personally like clean well-structured URLs, but beware of the costs of creating "reserved"/"manditory" structures. That's just my two cents, -brian -- brian suda http://suda.co.uk _______________________________________________ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss _______________________________________________ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
