# 00:54 acegiak2 GWG: updating some of my scripts to the updated post kinds. Is "summary" the new citation content box?
# 00:55 acegiak2 also, is v slick. like it

# 01:20 KartikPrabhu that's the problem with such one-size-fits-all things. They include everything by default, but you might not need most of those things
catsup, wolftune, arlen and limiting-factor joined the channel
# 02:30 GWG !tell acegiak, acegiak2 Summary is...mostly because citations are not usually full content. Had the hardest time with that decision.
# 02:30 Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
# 02:32 acegiak2 GWG: makes sense
# 02:32 acegiak2 I might have gone with "extract"?
# 02:32 acegiak2 but htat's off the cuff, not seriously thought about the wording

# 02:40 GWG I was trying to use microformat terms
# 02:40 acegiak2 makes sense then
# 02:40 GWG But in some cases, like a repost, you want content not summary
# 02:41 GWG I figured that I might need a special case for a repost, but for now..
# 02:43 GWG My next update involves breaking the presentation side into individual templates
# 02:52 GWG I have a general question about that.
# 02:54 GWG Facebook, for example, displays a timeline as...
# 02:54 GWG Is there a point in putting in 'Alice' or whatever name if the site is your site?
# 03:01 kevinmarks you can mark it up with p-summary or e-summary and my storycards will see it
# 03:02 GWG kevinmarks: The issue is that I had one box, and I was calling it content, but it is more often a summary as the only time it should be the entire thing is if it is a repost.
# 03:02 GWG Also, the thing the person is writing is also content.
# 03:03 GWG This is a citation summary as part of context.
# 03:04 kevinmarks I've started putting summaries (often extracts) on my homepage posts
# 03:04 GWG kevinmarks: I think you are thinking one level up from the discussion
davidized joined the channel
# 03:05 GWG This would be in a reply, for example, where the summary was a summary of the URL that is being replied to.
# 03:05 kevinmarks my point being that calling it summary and marking it up as summary for atom and h-entry is good
# 03:06 GWG Inside an h-cite nested in a h-entry?
# 03:10 GWG KartikPrabhu: That I agree. I was asking if his storycards would account for it.

# 05:41 kylewm kevinmarks: webmention discovery looks good from here
j12t_, KartikPrabhu, CaptainCalliope_ and anm_ joined the channel
# 05:54 kylewm so this is the idea that if you link to someone and they don't support webmentions, we could ping like an archive instead?
# 05:54 kevinmarks yes, though it's also an exercise in understanding the protocol for me

# 05:58 GWG kevinmarks: I'm going to give SVG a try. Any advice?
# 06:00 GWG kevinmarks: In place of icon fonts
# 06:01 GWG You linked to one in here. Was that the same one?
ventilateur and shaunguice joined the channel
# 06:03 GWG I'm right now assembling a collection of SVG icons
# 06:06 kevinmarks the other thing I learned about SVG is be careful with text - you can get the same font issues as HTML

# 07:08 KartikPrabhu I don't understand the question then. webmention is separate from micropub
# 07:14 kevinmarks I yak-shaved myself inot implementing a webmention endpoint while debating the protocol

# 07:23 KartikPrabhu why are people complaining about extensions when they probably haven't even played with webmention!?

# 07:51 tantek kevinmarks++ for another webmention implementation!
# 07:52 tantek KartikPrabhu: because philosophy vs science+engineering
# 07:53 tantek KartikPrabhu: it's unfortunate that there are so many more that appear to practice more philosophy than engineering
# 07:54 tantek but there is often hope of turning philosophers into engineers
# 07:56 tantek regardless, the growing body of implementations unaffected by the issues raised tends to reduce the credibility of the issues en masse
# 08:07 tantek kylewm++ for Woodwind! Proxy ++ from that tweet :)
# 08:32 kevinmarks mention-tech is an experimental [[webmention ]] implementation to explore the protocol as part of the SocialWG discussion.

# 08:49 kevinmarks if a site has more then one rel="webmention" endpoint, what should one do?
M-Kodo, M-RyanRix and M-kegan joined the channel
# 08:53 kevinmarks redundancy is good (remember, my site is static, and doesn't store the webmentions itself)
# 08:55 kevinmarks at the moment, webmention,herokuapp.com displays them very nicely, whereas mine is crap
j12t joined the channel
# 08:55 kevinmarks the other half of this is thinking about converging output in some way
# 08:56 kevinmarks if webmention.herokuapp.com and webmention.io converge on jf2, I could add that too
# 09:01 kevinmarks hm, spec says "The webmention endpoint is advertised in the HTTP Link header or a <link> or <a> element with rel="webmention" . If more than one of these is present, the HTTP Link header takes precedence, followed by the <link> element, and finally the <a> element. Clients MUST support all three options and fall back in this order."
# 09:04 tantek heh - I'll let you do the honors. for now I certainly don't want to exaggerate it.
# 09:04 voxpelli kevinmarks: I've been thinking of making my WebMention endpoint able to ping a second endpoint for all received pings
# 09:05 voxpelli Cool, good make it possible to have two endpoints set up at once so that one can easily move
# 09:09 kevinmarks but yes, when migrating you always want to have 2 services up in parallel
# 09:10 kevinmarks so you can A/B them to be sure that the migration is going to work

# 11:09 kevinmarks clearly I should go to bed and this will be obvious in the morning
# 11:12 voxpelli Not sure, but my endpoint only looks for the params in the body
# 11:15 kevinmarks I cna see form-encoded for micropub, but webmention doesn't need that
# 11:17 voxpelli So bodies needs to be supported, but query params can just as well be, so I'll add support for that when I get to a computer

# 18:58 tantek voxpelli: how about the week after? That's the last HWC of the year for Edinburgh btw - if you want to sync-up one more time this year
# 18:59 voxpelli tantek: not sure, we haven't discussed it, Malmö might be moving back to Wednesday though :)
# 19:00 tantek voxpelli: in that case you have 12-16 and 12-30 to sync-up with!
# 19:01 tantek hmm - I'm going to cluster the adjacent day meetings - our HWC footer has gotten long!
# 19:04 davidmead tantek - could you answer a simple, i hope, question about micropub endpoints?
# 19:04 tantek davidmead - unlikely unless it's already on the wiki and I assume you checked that? /Microbpu
# 19:05 tantek I think that better communicates the number of "actual" meetings spanning locations
# 19:05 tantek and a better feel for the number of different weeks that had HWC meetups
# 19:05 davidmead i’m moving my blogs around and i can’t get how i can point them back
# 19:06 tantek davidmead: I suppose I'm not sure what you're moving where vs. what you want to point back to where.
# 19:06 tantek this will likely take someone who has implemented Micropub
# 19:08 davidmead ah. i’ll try aaronpk then tantek. as i’ve gor a WP blog now at davidjohnmead.com/blog and all my rel=me links are on a static html page at davidjohnmead.com, quill and ownyourgram are working
# 19:09 tantek alright, that should do it for event updates / fixes wiki gardening for a bit!
# 19:10 tantek davidmead - you likely need your micropub endpoint to be discoverable from davidjohnmead.com
# 19:10 davidmead could i do that by adding it as a link in the head of the html tantek?
# 19:10 tantek otherwise how else would quill and ownyourgram know to look for it in the davidjohnmead.com/blog ?
# 19:11 tantek davidmead: for example, view source on your very own davidjohnmead.com/blog
davidized joined the channel
# 19:11 tantek there's no way any code could guess to look inside "/blog" on your site
# 19:11 tantek if you're just using davidjohnmead.com as your identity etc.
# 19:12 davidmead in the past i’ve used the profile page of whatever platform I had - WP, Known, etc.
# 19:13 tantek that being said - definitely interested in how we can improve that documentation!
# 19:15 davidmead and i have snarfed micropub WP plugin installed. Just couldn’t connect the dots in my head
# 19:15 Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
nitot joined the channel
# 19:28 davidmead apparently it posted, but nothing appears tantek. getting a 301 returned. so i’ll reach out to aaronpk
# 19:28 tantek or reach out to snarfed - if it posted, it likely went through to the WordPress Micropub plugin
# 19:28 tantek then the question is what did the plugin do with it
# 19:32 davidmead i’ll write it up and post it :-) thanks for the assist tantek
# 19:32 tantek no problem glad I could at least partially help!

# 20:24 davidmead but that was the test post. will be adding something new in a mo
# 20:26 tantek aaronpk: the /Quill UI supports category/tags - do URLs in there work as person-tags?
# 20:28 aaronpk I don't think I've found an occasion where I've wanted to person-tag someone in a note from Quill yet
# 20:28 aaronpk davidmead: I think that's the wordpress plugin using the filename of the image as the post title
# 20:30 aaronpk ownyourgram doesn't send a post name, since instagram photos don't have names, just captions
# 20:30 aaronpk so I think that's wordpress trying to make something up to be the name
# 20:32 tantek.com edited /Quill (+427) "more headings, explicit list of features supported, float UI to make it side-by-side with features etc." (

# 20:32 davidmead when i was using Known I managed to get that to post the caption as the title and then seperate the hashtags out. i may fiddle around tonight and see what i can break ;-)

# 22:09 bear X-Origin isn't a thing and, after reading the issue that the person linked to, I am not surprised that someone with that lack of knowledge would use such an imprecise term
# 22:11 bear goes back to ignoring the w3c for anything resembling serious conversation
# 22:14 bear clickjacking is a form of attack that uses multiple layers of links to mask the ultimate target, also known as a "UI redress attack", is when an attacker uses multiple transparent or opaque layers to trick a user into clicking on a button or link on another page when they were intending to click on the the top level page. See https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Clickjacking for details.

# 22:27 Zegnat Good evening IWC! What is happening on the indie web scene?
# 22:34 rhiaro I assumed by X-Origin he was shorthanding Cross Origin and was talkinga bout CORS. X-Frame-Options is something different..?
# 22:35 bear rhiaro ah, that could be - CORS is another animal completely
# 22:35 bear using X- in HTTP land to mean cross is very misleading, a theme his post had in abundance
