So I had the question posed to me yet again: Ok, we know we should do microformats... but we're not sure where to start. Can you help us out? Seeing as how I'm probably not alone here, I was going to create a Getting started with microformats page when I discovered a bunch of confused pages

[uf-discuss] dtstamp in hCal

2006-08-09 Thread Matt Augustine
