iSRAELiT KRA
#
iSRAELiT KartikPrabhu thanks man but just wanted to say hi to him
#
iSRAELiT wasn`t here for some time
#
KartikPrabhu iSRAELiT: aaah ok cool!
#
iSRAELiT and to raise questions in regards of why google ain`t accepting MF2
#
KartikPrabhu iSRAELiT: frankly who knows? but maybe tantek does
#
KartikPrabhu maybe google wants to push its Schema.org thing
KevinMarks and KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
iSRAELiT yeah but it did support MF1

#
ePirat KartikPrabhu, I have to admit that the shema.org Shemas section is much easier to read than the microformats references
#
Zegnat Not sure I agree, ePirat. I think http://schema.org/Event is a pretty dense page compared to http://microformats.org/wiki/h-event
#
ePirat btw shouldn't all properies be in a definition list?
#
ePirat that would additionally make it possible to format that more nicely and make it much easier to read
#
ePirat Zegnat, you are right, but what I meant was more in terms of readability.
#
iSRAELiT ePirat
#
iSRAELiT schema.org is hard to understand for most parts
#
iSRAELiT its easy to read yes, but not all values has an extended details
#
iSRAELiT and many don`t even have examples so you don`t know how to use
#
iSRAELiT the usage of "class" is MUCH easier than itemscope itemtype
#
ePirat yeah
#
ePirat I wasn't saying that it's better than microformats2
#
iSRAELiT i personally prefer MF1, MF2 is harder :(
#
ePirat I wonder if it's possible to use mf2 and microdata together or will it make any problems for mf2 parsers?
#
Zegnat There is no reason why you can’t use them together.
#
Zegnat mf3 parsers will look at classnames and really do not care about other HTML attributes
#
Zegnat *mf2
#
Zegnat iSRAELiT, why do you feel mf2 is harder than mf1?

iSRAELiT <Zegnat> iSRAELiT, why do you feel mf2 is harder than mf1?
#
iSRAELiT i don`t know, all of these - inbetween
#
iSRAELiT i didn`t really look into it because google won`t read them but from the little I tried it just seem a bit harder
#
Zegnat The *- prefixes are actually just that, prefixes. They tell a parser how the data should be handled (URL? String data? etc). So you can easily come up with your own uses or own names because of them

#
ben_thatmustbeme makes mf2 classes way easier to spot
#
ben_thatmustbeme the prefixes that is
#
ben_thatmustbeme the first time i encountered mf1, i saw class="fn" and thought "thats a terrible class name, i have no idea what that is"
KartikPrabhu and eschnou joined the channel
#
iSRAELiT ben_thatmustbeme what you wsay indeed make sense, but, I couldn`t figure easily how to use it
#
iSRAELiT i might needed more time

@Bolster @HerrWulf doesn't look like emails are getting schema microformats & I don't want to add a new cal every time I want to add an event. (twitter.com/_/status/627934430720622594)
