It seems that this whole thread comes down to offering a forum "view" of this mailing list -- along with feeds and other niceties that a dedicated interface affords. Well, you can already use Gmane to read this list (as Tantek pointed out to me), though there're no feeds available: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.microformats.general So I took it upon myself to mirror this list in Google Groups... because, in particular, the groups beta has a nice interface for dealing with the content found on this list. It's not ideal and Tantek can accuse me of reinventing wheels and spinning my own, but I, at least, find this alternative view useful: http://groups-beta.google.com/group/microformats/ Let me know what you think. Currently it doesn't allow posting as it's a read-only mirror.
