Re: [uf-discuss] Pingerati
Hi, I know I keep going on about pingerati. But has anyone noticed that it hasn't updated the list of recently updated pings in a couple of days. I know I have updated my blog, so at least they should have come through. This might also indicate why I have not recorded any pings.

Sometimes we get overwhelmed a bit with all the stuff going on. Yeah, that's what I figured. I don't suppose you could provide a rough estimate of how many of each microformat you're being pinged with daily? Part of the reason i didn't follow up sooner is that I started to second-guess whether what I have done is really ready for all those pings. But after I do some more work, I'll definitely send another request and Cc: both you and Kevin. Thanks. hAtom results make a lot of sense Scott, perhaps you could document what you've come up with specifically (for hAtom search results) on an hatom-examples page on the wiki so others could do the same? Will do.

RE: [uf-discuss] vcard fn for name in A. B. Smith format
Oh I realise that : ) I appreciate it's hypothetical but you could argue that in this kind of situation Charles Windsor could be the family name while His Royal Highness etc could be marked as the given name.

Re: [uf-discuss] vcard fn for name in A. B. Smith format
David Randall mumbled the following on 31/08/2006 11:01: I suppose the abbreviation pattern could theoretically be butchered for this purpose: abbr class=fn title=Charles WindsorHis Royal Highness, The Prince of Wales/abbr Royalty is a tricky one - how would you add other titles like Duke of Cornwall, Lieutenant General etc to the above? How about for his son? Prince Harry 2nd Lieutenant Wales Henry Charles Albert David Mountbatten-Windsor Even is family-name isn't consistent! -- Regards, Gazza ___ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
Re: [uf-discuss] hCard vs. vcf
Why did you end up not using standard address output? I think that's probably at the core of the issue. If you have a separate page with an hCard that's only used to convert to .vcf, the why not just use vcf is a valid question. :DG ___ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
[uf-discuss] Microformat Scripts
Are there any scripts out there that can do the hCard/hCal conversion the same way the technorati URL does? The obvious question from clients and others is why are we pointing to this technorati site and what if they change their URL or take their site down. --jeremy flint www.jeremyflint.com www.kineticcom.com ___ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss

That operates on a different system from the one that sends out the pings BTW so sometimes it lags, or just because it doesn't show an update doesn't mean the pings didn't get through. I know I have updated my blog, so at least they should have come through. Pingerati.net had some DNS problems the last day or so but those should now be fixed and pings should be going through. We're working on fixing the Recently updated pages section. This might also indicate why I have not recorded any pings. If you are still not seeing pings, definitely follow up with Kevin Marks and myself.
