Once Firefox three launches, and microformats are not only more widely available to end users, but inevitably discussed more widely on-line and in the media, there is almost certainly going to be an increase in the number of publishers wanting to use microformats their websites.
Such publishers are currently directed to this list which, it may be may foreseen, is likely to be swamped by repetitive "how do I..." questions. In order that this list remain available for its current uses, I suggest that setting up a -publish mailing list, and directing publishers to that, should be done, *before* the Firefox 3 launch. A FAQ could be posted there on a frequency to be determined. Of course, we cannot know how many new subscribers there will be, but it will be far easier to use a new list set up in advance, than to move them all if and when this list is swamped. In the unlikely event that such publishers do not appear, the list can be merged back into this one. It may also be worth considering one or two (publishing & consuming) .microformats newsgroups, under the existing mozilla.* hierarchy. -- Andy Mabbett ** via webmail ** _______________________________________________ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
