 Social Media Release Moving Forward Again
 June 20th, 2007 by Chris Heuer
 I just got off the phone with Shannon Whitley from PRX Builder
 and I am very happy to report that he is taking the lead in
 moving the technical standard for the Microformat forward.

 Subject: Bringing Home hRelease
 As Chris announced on SocialMediaRelease.org, I'm going to be
 helping out with completing the hRelease recommendation and
 getting the working group going again.
 My plan is to focus on the low-hanging fruit first and make
 progress on the core elements of hRelease.
 The working group will focus primarily on technical aspects of
 hRelease. Don't worry, though, the final recommendation will
 not be decided by a bunch of gearheads. Recommendations will be
 presented to this group for review and discussion.
Interestingly, Brian Oberkirch isn't mentioned on either of the first
two pages; nor does he appear amongst the recent posters on the latter
mailing list.
Perhaps someone should tell him?
