#ben_thatmustbemeKartikPrabhu: can you possibly just use only spans and classes to make the same appearance as an ol? I would certainly recommend against changing existing markup as that can break styling.

#KartikPrabhuben_thatmustbeme: marginalia.js does not change the existing markup on the page. So i don't want to force it to use span
#ben_thatmustbemeNot what I mean. Your problem is p > span > ol can't exist correct?
#LoqiKartikPrabhu meant to say: i could tailor marginalia.js for my own site markup but that seems fragile
#ben_thatmustbemeCould you explain " use something that is not ol and everything breaks"

#KartikPrabhuI mean. I currently use <ol> for a list of responses. But if I make marginalia.js use that specific markup to hack around the display issues, the whole thing breaks if I decide tomorrow that my list of responses should be a div or something
#KartikPrabhuI don't want marginalia.js to touch any of the existing markup on the page; it should only move responses around
#ben_thatmustbemeHmmm I'm also probably too tired to figure this out right now
#KartikPrabhuben_thatmustbeme: no worries. I have been thinking of this for the whole weekend and can't see how to do it
#KartikPrabhumaybe hacking around <span> is the best way as you suggest

#aaronpkAlexa posts a video. Charles comments on the video. Denise likes Charles' comment.
#aaronpkin order for Alexa's followers to see Denise's "like" of Charles' comment, Alexa needs to publish that like in the feed that her followers are subscriebd to

#aaronpkshould Alexa publish an h-cite of Denise's "like" on her home page?
#tantekI don't think Alexa's followers see that like by default in any stream or notification or activity UI
#aaronpkthey don't see it in a notification or stream view, but they do on the post
#aaronpkben_thatmustbeme: PuSH would solve that as long as the post is on the home page, but if it's an older post and scrolled off the page, it wouldn't show up
#ben_thatmustbemedoesn't seem much of a problem with old posts getting outdated. so long as they are occasionally polled likely when viewed and a post is too old (intentionally vague here)
#Loqislack/snarfed: one alternative would be to have response posts propagate webmentions upstream. ie when Charles gets Denise's like wm, his server sends a corresponding wm to Alexa's backfed copy of his comment
#Loqislack/snarfed: a bit contorted, and might need to relax the current wm backlink reqts, but it could work
#aaronpkthe problem is how does that like at the edge of the network get propagated back down to alexa's other followers
#Loqislack/snarfed: ah. i guess I'm all for it getting updated on the copy of the comment that they see on her post, eg in a reader, but showing it to them as a top-level entry seems like overkill
#aaronpkyes! i'm absolutely not suggesting showing it as a top-level entry
#aaronpkbut the data needs to get to other people *somehow*
#aaronpkand that's what's missing right now, we don't have a good mechanism for that
#Loqislack/snarfed: hmm maybe. still not entirely convinced something's needed beyond what we already have
#Loqislack/snarfed: but i haven't read the user stories, so i should shut up
#aaronpki tried to summarize it just now so you don't have to read it
#Loqislack/snarfed: if alexa's followers can already see it on the comment, and they wouldn't see it top level, how else would they see it?
#aaronpkbam first post in my facebook timeline has it
#tanteksuch interactions don't trickle "down to Alexa's followers", they only show on notifications of people that have interacted with that post previously, e.g. commented on it
#tantekis this a reader view? a notification? what?
#tantekhence I think we need to start with capturing a screenshot to the wiki
