Currently, I can't name a single IM client that uses semanticful HTML for logging. In fact, there's been a trend *away* from HTML lately. Microformats are supposed to represent what exists in the wild, no? Whatever the validity of Chris's points about redundancy or future directions, isn't the idea that uFs are supposed to represent what's in the wild overriding?
Yes, hence why I said "It may not be part of 80% or initial-draft use cases, but if it starts happening, I'll be all for it."
I'm not saying that we as a community should design microformats specifically for the purpose of data storage. I'm saying we shouldn't stand against their eventual propogation into that arena, becase they could be useful there too. -- - Stephen Paul Weber, Amateur Writer <http://www.awriterz.org> MSN/GTalk/Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ/AIM: 103332966 BLOG: http://singpolyma-tech.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ microformats-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
