Specification

HMformat is a XHTML based format where the relevant elements have id attributes. It must have a reasonable human presentation using CSS and with anchors (a).

HMformat is a combined human-machine format. Conceptually is similar to [[MICROFORMATS]].

It is recommended to code the data as key-value pairs, where:

Human readable format means that humans can read it and that it has mechanisms for web navigation, such as clickable anchor in a browser. Example: HTML.

Machine readable format means that it can be programatically processed. Example: XML, JSON.

Combined human-machine format means that it is both, human and machine readable. Example: XHTML-ID.

Formats for URI metadata structure Formats appropriate for the URI metadata structure. Combined human-machine formats should be preferred.

The URI metadata structure must be available in at least one human readable format and one machine readable format. The default format is XHTML-ID. The content should be as language neutral as possible.
