uF has no scoping.  See this email:

As I understand it, if we had:
<div class="haudio">
   <span class="contributor">
      <span class="vcard">
         <span class="fn org">Phish</span>
      </span>
   </span>
   <span class="fn">Sneaking Sally Thru The Alley</span>
   <br/>
</div>

The two "fn" fields would clobber each other.

This is a pretty harsh limit on uF, one that I personally think should/could go 
away by allowing uF containing other uF to know that
the contained uF should be excluded from parsing by the parent.

I'm missing something that you're seeing in Ryan's message -- what fn
belongs to depends on the context of the "fn".

The "fn" within the contributor is bound in meaning to "contributor".
The other fn binds to "haudio".

NOTE that I looked in other microformats for this pattern and did not
find it. The closest I came was in hReview, which does this:

hreview
* item
** fn <- the title of the thing being reviewed
* reviewer
** fn <- the name of the reviewer

Perhaps this pattern would work for you?

Regards, etc...
