point me in that direction so I can read up?
No discussion that I would know of. But it certainly looks like we're
moving towards one. I'll try to put together a basic proposal for
the search
microformat over the weekend; but I certainly won't mind if you beat
me to
it. :)
Aleksander, I've never participated in the development of a
microformat before so I went to go read up on the process on the
wiki[0]. It directs me to email the -new list, as Brian did as well,
so that's what I've done. (See below.) Would love to hear your
thoughts, as well as others. I'll also throw out that I'm interested
in seeing this through if it gains traction.

There was some discussion several years ago about mapping OpenSearch

Thanks for this pointer! The OpenSearch and microformats effort seems
like it had a much larger scope than what Aleksander has done with
Mosembro, though…I'm thinking "simple problems first."
If we wish to discuss new formats, we should move that discussion over
to the -new list
Thanks,

No worries. I've done exactly that, so we can continue this
discussion, if anyone is interested in doing so with me, over here:
