The point is to capture specific issues rather than have a "discussion" - a discussion where nothing is recorded on the wiki is nearly worthless and may as well have not happened.
If it doesn't get captured on a discoverable URL, it might as well not exist (and no, email archives are NOT discoverable). I don't remember anyone asking for anything like itemscope in microformats. This list or IRC (preferably) is a good place to start with questions, but if there is an answer it should be captured by the author in an FAQ either specific to a microformat *-faq page, or in general on: http://microformats.org/wiki/faq If there is a specific known issue to report for a specific microformat, add it to the *-issues page for that microformat. If there is a specific known issue that applies to several microformats (eg class microformats) add it to: http://microformats.org/wiki/issues The goal is to *minimize* thrash / going in circles on email (a common problem in standards related communities), and instead to capture and grow our collective knowledge and understanding on the wiki.

Well, "just a discussion" wouldn't be a bad start. Or do you suggest that I open a wiki page on my question?
