Ok, I'll try this again... ______________________________
Adrienne, As someone that was actively involved in creating COinS, it's not a microformat. Most of the reasons are semantic, some are pedantic, but it boils down to: 1. Microformats have a process and COinS was developed outside that process 2. COinS hides its data in an attribute -- ufs don't like hidden data 3. I think there's a potential conflict, eventually, between hCite and COinS, but let's burn that bridge when we get to it. That being said, COinS have merit with or without the microformat community: however, they aren't microformats. If you haven't joined the gcs-pcs list ( http://groups.google.com/group/gcs-pcs-list), that's a good place to talk about COinS (since it's where it was conceived). -Ross.

I just found out about this, and it SEEMS like a microformat, and worth including on the wiki: http://ocoins.info/ It's a way of including structured bibliographic data for a page in a very compact format. --Adrienne Travis
