I would like to inform you that the Media Examples Anyalisis has at last
been completed please see

The full results and discovered schema for a Media Microformat is

It strikes me that it's missing guidance on how to mark up thumbnails
for images.
OK...
The "obvious" way would seem to be:
<div class="hmedia">
<a class="full.jpeg" rel="enclosure" class="photo">
<img class="thumbnail" src="thumb.jpeg" alt="whatever">
</a>
</div>
...
But, as class="photo" is used to provide a graphical preview for video
and audio files, it seems that a better way would be to use
class="photo" for the thumbnail and rel="enclosure" (but not
class="photo") for the full sized image:
<div class="hmedia">
<a class="full.jpeg" rel="enclosure">
<img class="photo" src="thumb.jpeg" alt="whatever">
</a>
</div>
the above example is kind of how it goes
<div class="hmedia">
<a class="fn" href="full.jpeg" rel="enclosure" type="image/jpeg">
<img class="photo" src="thumb.jpeg" alt="name of image" />
</a>
</div>
here the @alt of the image will form the textual name ("fn") of the media.
Though that is not immediately obvious, so I think it would benefit
from explicit mention in any spec.
Agreed..
Thanks
