Very much a stub...

There's a lot of work here. RFPs should allow for widely varying degrees of specificity. Ideally, a seeker should be able to create an RFP for:

  • a blackberry 7130c
  • a cell phone with bluetooth and EDGE support
  • a cell phone costing less than $250
  • a cell phone

Even before considering the different attributes required by different types of requests (travel planning vs. product purchase, for example) it's clear that creating a workable microformat for RFPs will be a fascinating (and frustrating) process. It's worth noting, though, that work in this area pays off in many ways.
