Hi Lorenzo, There has already been some work done on groups... and I'd caution against suggesting such far-reaching changes off the bat to a core microformat. It's a sure way to give yourself away! ;)
http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-discuss/2006-February/003192.html http:/microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-discuss/2006-August/005116.html Also, feel free to use the markup you proposed on your projects -- but it's unlikely that, at this point, with implementations (http://microformats.org/wiki/implementations) from folks like Yahoo!, Flickr and LinkedIn -- that hcard is going to go through any drastic changes any time soon. Especially when it's built on the international vcard standard. Additionally, familiarize yourself with the process page as it's a good place to discover more about how microformats are pounded into shape: http://microformats.org/wiki/process Chris On 10/25/06, Lorenzo De Tomasi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Some thoughts... Why not to split hcard in two formats: person and group? "Person" describes a physical person, like me, you or Dante Alighieri. "Group" describes a group of persons, organized in companies, associations, teams etc. and its a container of persons. <div class="group"> <h1 class="name">Microformats</h1> <p><a href="mailto:[email protected]";> <h2>Members</h2> <ul> <li class="person"><span class="fn n">Tantek Çelik</span></li> <li class="person"><span class="fn n">Lorenzo De Tomasi</span>, <span class="role">information designer</span></li> <li class="person"><span class="fn n">…</span></li> </ul> </div> "Resource" describes a work, like a book, a web site, an article etc. <p class="resource"><span class="author group name">Microformats team</span>, <em>hCard specification</span></p> and can be useful also for bibliographies [look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BibTeX ]: <h3>Published resources</h3> <ul> <li><span class="author fn n">Lorenzo De Tomasi</span> e <span class="author fn n">Katia Cassese</span>, <em class="title">Come funziona il diritto d’autore</em>, <span class="collection"><a class="title" href="http://www.ilsecolodellarete.it";>Isdr</a> n.<span class="issue">0</span></span>, <a class="publisher" href="http://www.ilsecolodellarete.it";>Il secolo della rete</a>, <span class="published adr city">Pisa</span>, <span class="published date" title="2005_07">luglio 2005</span>.</li> <li><span class="author fn n">Lorenzo De Tomasi</span>, <a class="title url" href="http://www.aprileperlasinistra.it/aprilerivista/articolo.asp?n=121&ID=1019";><em>Sapere, bene comune: Commons, la condivisione della conoscenza</em></a>, <span class="collection"><a class="title url" href="http://www.aprileperlasinistra.it/aprilerivista/numero.asp";>Aprile.
