Hi Mike,
Your always welcome to use HTML class name semantics or other
microformat-inspired technologies in your private applications.
However, that is a different thing that calling it a "microformat"
and engaging this whole group in vetting and supporting it.
If you think this could be a great solution to an existing problem, I
encourage to just go ahead and implement it. As long as you don't
call it a microformat, feel free to experiment. :-)

Thanks Charles.
However I still have no idea why these things apply to specifying
which page
among of group of equivalent pages is authoritative and why
Microformats do
not. The latter seem a perfect fit to me, and what you listed
either don't
apply to general web pages, are years off and can't be used today,
are not
related, or don't provide the features needed. The microformat
concept would
work perfectly for this (and similar problems.)

Subject: Re: [uf-discuss] Visible Data...a Microformat requirement?
Hello Mike,
XML, Semantic HTML, and RDF are closely related to what is being
done here.
But there's alot of other technologies for specific areas. Like with
multimedia type thigns we have SMIL, XSPF, etc etc.
For databases like things we have CSV, TSV, HTML tables, etc etc.
(Obviously I'm not going to try to enumerate every "area" and every
technology... but hopefully this will give you an idea.)
