@Chris_Perry_61 @t I was just looking at http://microformats.org and realised that the last updates on there seem to be no later than 1st half of 2020. I was just curious what the latest state of play is with the site and microformats generally. Do you happen to know? (twitter.com/_/status/1440263106085605382)

@nhoizey ↩️ The attribute value is proprietary, not the attribute. I think adding link types is ok per https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/links.html#concept-rel-extensions > Anyone is free to edit the microformats wiki existing-rel-values page at any time to add a type (twitter.com/_/status/1440320232233455619)

[tantek] aaronpk, my guess is that so many "projects" get silently "abandoned" (e.g. GitHub repos) that folks have been trained to be skeptical of anything that doesn't seem to have "activity" in over a year. It's not unreasonable (in terms of GitHub projects at least)
#
[tantek] sounds like an opportunity to invite them to this chat 🙂

[chrisaldrich] I stumbled across this curious gem this morning and thought others may either know of it or have some interest: https://semanticbible.com/bibleref/bibleref-overview.html Looks like some interesting prior art if nothing else.
