Hmm, nitpick, DOAP is more about domain model, independent of format. I take your point about process, but then on the other hand Edd's already done a pretty good description of the general problem [1], existing formats [2] and modelling [3]. There are plenty of examples in Apache [4], CodeZoo [5] and SWIK [6], there's even a continuous stream of them at [7]. I can't help thinking any attempt at a software project description microformat following the process to the letter would mean significant duplication of Edd's work. Whatever, there should be significant benefit in lowering the barrier to publishing this kind of material - if only to provide Technorati with an extra search facility ;-) Cheers, Danny.
