 > Neither Bing or Google list support of microformats 2 (mf2) officially,
 only microformats 1 (mf1). As mf2 provides a richer data set than mf1, I'd
 be surprised if they ignored it completely. Perhaps other will have more
 insight.
 Bing and Google built there proprietary formats based of the original
 Microformats, no doubt in no small part because of the integration of
 these in WordPress, WordPress doesn't need to follow Bing or Google ;)
