There are no existing standards for specifying microsummaries. Appropriate bodies for standardization may include the microformats group and the WHATWG. In general, we'll want to provide ways for both sites and users to specify microsummaries for pages. | There are no existing standards for specifying microsummaries.

Microsummary specifications should include the summary itself (or a way to derive it), its content type, and how frequently it should be updated. It should be possible to update the update frequency itself in addition to the summary for pages whose frequency of change differs over time (f.e. auctions whose highest bid changes more frequently as the auctions draw to an end and stock quotes that don't change at all while the markets are closed). | Microsummary specifications should include the summary itself (or a way to derive it), its content type, and how frequently it should be updated.
