Greetings,

I recently redesigned my site and had some wild ideas about defining the loosely-collect @rel values I have on my site (pgpkey, icon, pingback, editURI, etc.) as well as assorted Microformat values for @rel that do not have formal XMDP set up already. The long-term goal is to create a Firefox Extension/Greasemonkey Script/Bookmarklet that displays meaningful information for them. My question is twofold:

Why are most microformat profiles written in encoded html[1][2]? Is this to show that they are only drafts?

Is it beneficial to create my xhtml metadata profiles and publish them without submitting them to a standards body? Is their harm in publishing xhtml metadata profiles willy-nilly?

Cheers,
