Exactly! We need a brand and a website that introduces people to the
concept, tells them where to get the plugins or the right browsers and

I think better encouragement would come from putting energy into
creating tools, plug-ins, examples and tutorials for those people -
rather than trying to re-brand something that's already something else
re-branded.
I couldn't agree more. I think this discussion is rather unproductive
for this community. Just build the tools, design them well and get
people to use them. If you never use the word 'microformat' in your
application, that's fine. No harm, no foul, no need to build a new brand.
To use a cool name for this - do it web 2.0 - we as a relatively small
group of which I'm relatively new can't decide what people will call
this and FF3 perhaps shouldn't call it something. Everybody can choose
their own name and it will - by the power of web 2.0 which microformat
is very much a part of - become a good word in the end.
Probably none of us here is the right ones to decide something like this...
