Can anyone give any real *disadvantages* to using output compression?
Perhaps not - but is it always available to people? Not everyone manages

resides.
Could there be a microFormats and Semantic Web mailing list for a
clear channel of such topics, as it seems to be diretly related (in an
indirect way)?
Where can I find out about the Governance of Microformats?
How specs are created, how final rulings are decided, etc, if Tantek

I think this has been mentioned before, but I'll mention it again.
From http://microformats.org/wiki/geo:
geo is a 1:1 representation of the geo property in the vCard

I'm blatantly new to the world of micro formats, but as I'm finding
