# 06:33 TheGillies aaronpk: I don't think known likes media endpoint <p>Known experienced a problem with this page and couldn't continue. The technical details are as follows:</p>
# 06:35 TheGillies aaronpk: "While the entirety of p3k is not open source, I have open-sourced many of the components. I've chosen to provide components of my site rather than the whole thing because in reality nobody is going to want to use the exact same workflow I have built." Is that the real reason? Because I would argue the opposite
# 06:40 aaronpk also i don't want to maintain a whole open source CMS
# 06:42 TheGillies aaronpk: It would be nice to have a suite that actually supported all the indieweb stuff properly though ;)
# 06:42 KartikPrabhu aaronpk: you don't have to support a large CMS but you could simply open-source your site and say "fork it if you want"
# 06:43 aaronpk KartikPrabhu: I appreciate the sentiment but in reality that's not how it ends up working :-)
# 06:44 KartikPrabhu aaronpk: yes, I have the same trepidation with my own site code and whether I should fix the mess that is /Bundle and open-source it
# 06:45 aaronpk With my 2016 rewrite of p3k I'm feeling much more comfortable with open sourcing the whole thing tho
# 06:45 KartikPrabhu what made you change your mind about that? cleaner code or something else?
# 06:47 aaronpk i just updated indiewebcat.com to the latest from a several month old version and it was pretty seamless. So I'm feeling better about that now
# 06:47 KartikPrabhu I see. I'd actually like some one experienced write that blogpost ;) wink-wink-nudge-nudge
# 06:49 KartikPrabhu everyone does, but I feel your experience with p3k and writing your own code could help some of us who are doing the same thing.
# 06:51 KartikPrabhu from your own admission I feel that open-sourcing your site is a big responsibility and so it would be useful for someone like me who is not a dev to know why/how
# 06:58 aaronpk Im sure the wiki could be improved in that regard, feel free to make edits :-)
# 07:04 KartikPrabhu would be a good idea to have a indie-wordpress installation? i.e. wordpress simply installs with some basic indieweb plugins? can that be done?
# 07:05 TheGillies although installing these plugins is taking me less than 5 minutes
# 07:05 GWG As far as I know, there is no way to do that.
# 07:06 TheGillies although I might not be a good benchmark for the average user
# 07:06 GWG Dependency management is also a sensitive issue
# 07:07 KartikPrabhu GWG: so there is no way to say "install wordpress with these plugins" ?
# 07:07 GWG Not that I know of. But I'll look around.
# 07:07 GWG That is why we came up with the plugin installer idea in the Indieweb plugin.
# 07:11 GWG Always looking for feedback on any given plugin and how they interact though.

# 07:15 GWG TheGillies: A bookmarklet to do what?
# 07:16 Loqi [Ryan Barrett] IndieWeb Press This bookmarklets for WordPress
# 07:20 GWG That wouldn't work with Post Kinds, but it will work in general.
# 07:26 GWG The WordPress Micropub plugin doesn't have a media endpoint.
# 07:28 TheGillies because that's wordpress and known that don't work which are supposedly the most mature
# 07:28 GWG No one is against putting it into the WordPress plugin. It just isn't required, so no one was interested.
# 07:29 TheGillies I might hack it in to a PR once I figure out how to program php heh
# 07:29 GWG TheGillies: I've thought about it. But I have so much going on...
