I can't make any sense of that; and I don't believe that's a failure on my part. Do you mean that the much-vaunted process, described on the wiki, isn't believable? From: <http://microformats.org/wiki/process#Specifications> Specifications You will usually need at least one iteration to get past the draft stage. By the time something becomes a specification, it should be stable so that developers can pick it up and write to it. This in turn implies that there are at least a couple of implementations. Before moving to the specifications section, drop a note to microformats-discuss and wait a day or two for major objections. If none are forthcoming, move the microformat to the specifications area. This move will wake up any sleeping editors, and they may raise an objection and move you back to draft. If you have followed the process, now is the time to pin them down. At this juncture, any remaining issues should be easy to resolve. (Section quoted in full.) >Just because some >one says "i don't see anything wrong" doesn't mean there isn't. Indeed. That's why I asked; as advised in "the process", quoted above. >Instead of selecting microformats that people think should move from >draft, we should spend that time to define what that actually MEANS. How can several uFs already have moved from "draft" to "specification", if we don't know what that means? -- Andy Mabbett * Say "NO!" to compulsory ID Cards: <http://www.no2id.net/> * Free Our Data: <http://www.freeourdata.org.uk> * Are you using Microformats, yet: <http://microformats.org/> ? _______________________________________________ microformats-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
