GWG++ congrats! How long from "merging" until it lands in the WordPress Plugin Directory so it's easy for people to install / upgrade to?

#
GWG
tantek: You'll have to ask pfefferle. I can't push anything.
#
tantek
GWG, we should discuss forking all the IndieWeb Plugins for "normal" users, vs. development users
#
GWG
Development users can use the Github version
#
tantek
in short, it takes too long for the work that you do, bug fixes, etc. to get deployed to "normal" users, and "normal" WordPress users will not bother with the Github version
#
[miklb]
I routinely test the master branches of the plugins
#
tantek
miklb++

miklb has 3 karma in this channel (33 overall)
#
[miklb]
it would be nice if the IW plugins were more community than individual.
#
tantek
From what I can tell from the past two years, pfefferle is not really actively pushing updates to "normal" users, nor really shows any interest or maybe just isn't available to, so it makes sense to have someone who is active here do a "user" fork that is more response to bug fixes and updates
#
tantek
more responsive*
#
tantek
GWG, what do you think of forking the WordPress IndieWeb related plugins into the IndieWeb github org, and assigning multiple repo maintainers so we are not bottlenecked on a single person (per [miklb]'s point)
#
tantek
that way we can get more rapid releases out, and with multiple maintainers, you can review / approve each others's pull requests as well
#
GWG
Are there other people interested?
#
[miklb]
only thing about that is the fork would be a duplicate of a plugin already in the official WP repo
#
GWG
The Indieweb plugin is in the Indieweb github, and I'm the usual contributor.
#
tantek
[miklb]: except the admin/maintenence authority would move to this community
#
GWG
If other people were interested, it would be different.
#
[miklb]
that’s still up the plugin author.
#
tantek
instead of being bottlenecked with anything "official WP"
#
tantek
[miklb], right, that's the point of having a "user-focused" set of plugins that someone *active* is maintaining here
#
tantek
logcially it seems like GWG could do that part since he's very responsive and available
#
[miklb]
maybe just discuss with pfefferle about moving the plugin to the community repo
#
GWG
He reads the logs. He'll see this.
#
[miklb]
first.
#
tantek
[miklb] certainly open to it. I'd like to see this situation solved by IndieWeb Summit.
#
tantek
so we have two problems to solve:
#
[miklb]
@GWG I would gladly help with the WP plugins in a community repo
#
tantek
1. being bottlenecked / greatly delayed on getting pull requests merged into WP plugins
#
GWG
[miklb]: You should be invited to the community. I forget who has permission to invite members
#
tantek
2. being bottlenecked / greatly delayed getting "official" (WP directory) releases of plugins both initially, and responsive updates when bug fixes / improvements are made
#
tantek
miklb++ great you plus GWG makes two, and that's the minimum we need to make this work
#
GWG
The Indieweb WordPress Plugin repo is set to require a review by another maintainer to merge.
#
[miklb]
I think that’s a great idea
#
tantek
GWG, that's good if you have another responsive maintainer.
#
tantek
yes, seems like a good practice
#
[miklb]
fwiw, pfefferle has been pretty quick to merge and release plugin updates. I know there was a time before I was using WordPress where he had commitments,but I haven’t seen any long delays.
#
[miklb]
but longer term, I do think “official” community versions would be better.
#
GWG
He had some issues last year. But lately, he responds more quickly.
#
GWG
I put out a PR today, and he merged it tonight.
#
GWG
I still honestly think we just need more people interested in adding to the code.
#
GWG
I would like to suggest he transfer wordpress-uf2 to the community though. That project could use some attention.
#
GWG
Who has admin access to the github org?
#
aaronpk
almost everyone
#
GWG
So, I could invite miklb?
#
GWG
It says I have to be an owner.
#
aaronpk
you should be
#
GWG
I think I found the setting. But it wasn't there before.
#
aaronpk
github permissions confuse me sometimes
#
GWG
I think I got him invited.
#
[miklb]
the organization permissions haven’t gotten more granular than initially
#
[miklb]
s/have/haven’t/
#
GWG
[miklb]: Either way...invitation sent
#
[miklb]
yes, I did see. ?
#
aaronpk
i still haven't adjusted to the permissions they added a couple years ago
KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
[miklb]
the only another point I would make about having “official” community code is that it would be covered under the code of conduct.
KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
GWG
[miklb]: How would the code of conduct apply to this?
#
[miklb]
I mean, if the code is part of the official org, then issues & PR discussions would be covered under the IW code of conduct.
#
GWG
Has there been a conduct issue?
#
[miklb]
Not that I’m aware of. That doesn’t preclude being prepared.
#
GWG
[miklb]: I'd like to have the problem of more people, to be honest
#
[miklb]
sure. one could argue community code repos would be more inviting to potential contributors
#
GWG
Wonder if chrisaldrich's WordCamp this weekend will net us any interest. He's a good promoter
#
[miklb]
on a different note, I’ve got a week at a rainy beach ahead of my this week so hope to do a lot of indieweb stuff.

#
GWG
[miklb]: What do you have in mind?
#
[miklb]
Work on the theme & I want to get some kind of check in working, either ownyourswarm or use your simple locations before I go to New Orleans next month
#
[miklb]
From mobile that is
#
GWG
[miklb]: I still never got the venue part built.
#
GWG
The next Simple Location addition is Locations for Comments. Same for Syndication Links.
#
[miklb]
mostly I think I want to work on getting the micropub location data passed
#
GWG
[miklb]: It is. Are you talking about when it is full h-card?
#
[miklb]
I didn’t think it passed the lat/long for making maps. I’ll have to look again.
#
GWG
[miklb]: It should, considering the settings.
#
GWG
It is possible it is setting it to hidden.
#
[miklb]
cool. I’ll have time to look closer.
tantek joined the channel
#
tantek
glad to hear it [miklb] GWG (sorry for delayed reply - was en route)
#
tantek
GWG, maybe that's a good subject to bring up at IWS?
#
GWG
Which one?
#
tantek
reads back logs, realizes he missed a bunch
#
tantek
GWG transferring plugin repos to the community
#
aaronpk
it's always an interesting challenge determining what code should be community-owned vs on my individual github
#
aaronpk
i've been erring on the side of keeping things on my own account as part of "p3k" lately, mostly cause i'm not sure everyone wants to solve the problems the same way as me
#
GWG
wordpress-uf2 is an old repo. Maybe it is better to start fresh with that. It was meant to try and automatically add mf2. markup using filters and such.
#
tantek
aaronpk, agreed, that makes sense. similarly, cassis.js is *very* opinionated right now (maybe not in all the ideal ways), but in a way that makes sense to me, but may not make sense to others (in terms of coding on / in it)
#
tantek

[Zegnat] #39 Normalise licensing for projects in the IndieWeb GitHub org.
#
pfefferle
Zegnat thanks for the reminder, but all the potential WordPress plugins are MIT as far as I know
#
Zegnat
MIT is good in my book. Though I would still love to see the IndieWeb Org move towards PD
#
Zegnat
sknebel, I am planning to do some work on my wm endpoint today, including private wm. Are you available later today for some testing/consultation?
#
pfefferle
Zegnat I have no problems with CC0, but then I have to do some changes to my transferred plugins...
#
sknebel
Zegnat: I should be available most of the day, yes
#

Just something to keep in mind, pfefferla. I might try to resurface that issue again during IWS and see what the community thinks.

#

[Kevin Marks] The weird thing is that a lot of phones have an fm radio in, but it is disabled
#
GWG
pfefferle: I did, however, agree with tantek that trying to solve the entire non-post mentions problem was overscoping when homepage mentions were the only one for which there was a specific rather than general use case, which is why I sent the PR.

eli_oat and rMdes joined the channel
#
pfefferle
GWG I understand, and I like the changes and already merged them... I only wanted to argue why it is still not live on the WP repo... and that is because of some issues with WordPress showing "duplicate comment" issues if bridgy sends webmentions to more than one URL with the same content.
rMdes- and rMdes_ joined the channel
#
Zegnat
pfefferle, is there a reason to not push to WP for every thing that gets merged? That’s probably what tantek hoped for: quick iterative updates, if you have 2 bugs and fixed only 1, still push it.
#
pfefferle
Zegnat with the review process, we wanted to lower the bug count... and as far as I know there was never a problem of blocking a bugfix for too long...
#
pfefferle
GWG has the possibility to release to the WP repo and I will add others if this is still not enough....
#
pfefferle
but I don't want to add various people and it does not fix the problem that there is not that much contibution ongoing...
eli_oat joined the channel
#
Zegnat
I am not an user, so I can’t say I care too much, pfefferle :) Just trying to figure out where exactly tantek’s issue stems from.
#
pfefferle
Zegnat me too, thats why I wrote such a long response...
#
GWG
pfefferle, I haven't tested the duplicate content issue because I didn't enable home mentions
#
pfefferle
GWG ah ok, but I want to fix that before pushing it to the WP repo, because otherwise we produce a lot of issues...
#
pfefferle
GWG I will have a look later today, perhaps it is similar to the comment flood protection...
#
GWG
It may be something we can adjust

whoa really?
#
tantek
how are we doing the math these days? I cannot tell from 2017.indieweb.org due to indie rsvps vs dupes vs fb backfeed rsvps vs. normal tickets
#
aaronpk
i got rid of the facebook RSVPs
#
aaronpk
the tito count should be authoritative since everyone is supposed to register there
#
tantek
I have a feeling just like last year we have some indie rsvps w/o tito reg though
#
tantek
which I think is what gRegorLove updated ^^^
#
aaronpk
hm i'll have to check that
#
aaronpk
it'd sure be nice to consolidate all these RSVP options
#
gRegorLove
Previously I counted and removed the dupes. Noticed no dupes today.
#
tantek
or maybe indicate a flow? e.g. these folks have indie rsvpd but no tito ticket yet! please grab your complimentary ticket here!
#
tantek
gRegorLove: of the 18 indie RSVPs you counted, (and which are displayed on 2017.indieweb.org), note that the two black & white icons look VERY similar >:D (due to posting multiple indie RSVP posts ;) )
#
tantek
also did we ever figure out why Scott Jenson's indie RSVP was not being parsed by 2017.indieweb.org?

oh right, and we didn't figure out if that was Known's fault or user error or both?
#
aaronpk
i think i left as soon as we got that far
#
gRegorLove
He's on WordPress
#
aaronpk
that was his known site
#
tantek
gRegorLove: he also installed Known
#
tantek
because Known can RSVP without having to sftp/scp stuff around
#
tantek
whereas right now if you want to post an RSVP with WordPress WITHOUT typing in markup, you have to install the latest Wordpress Post kinds plugin via github / sftp/scp command line voodoo
#
tantek
and that's not reasonable to ask of users
#
tantek
the WordPress indieweb situ for RSVPing is dev-only currently
#
sknebel
is it? I thought it was in the last release
#
tantek
sknebel: see the #indieweb logs - it was not as of when scottjenson tried to RSVP, and it was pretty clear that setting up WordPress to post RSVPs is like a twisty maze
#
Zegnat
tantek, where should I do my remove RSVP to? I didn’t want to mess up any counting on 2017.indieweb.org
#
aaronpk
what is rsvp?
#
Loqi
An RSVP is a reply to an event post that says whether the sender is or is not attending, might attend, or is just interested in the event https://indieweb.org/rsvp
#
aaronpk
is rsvp=remote a thing?
#
aaronpk
the site will only count "yes" RSVPs
#
Zegnat
But that didn’t feel very authoritative (sorry tantek ;))
#
tantek
Zegnat I don't understand your question
#
tantek
no apology needed! definitely don't want my brainstorms / experiments to be considered authoritative!!!
#
Zegnat
tantek, I wanted to RSVP (I have cleared my schedule for IWC), but did not want to RSVP yes to 2017.indieweb.org because I am not taking a spot (I am 100% remote)
#
tantek
Zegnat - great point! Can you add a note / question to that extent in /RSVP#Brainstorming about "remote participation"? (create a new subsection on that topic if there isn't one already)
#
Zegnat
I can. I will.

I need to order the stickers tomorrow, so anyone who has thoughts should chime in now or forever hold your peace :) https://github.com/indieweb/branding/blob/master/logos/hex-stickers/hex-stickers.png
#
tantek
this is why not github issues
#
aaronpk
i don't follow
#
tantek
lack of feedback may indicate barrier / feedback desire mismatch
#
tantek
as in, I don't want to think about *creating* a specific issue for each possible thing to discuss
#
gRegorLove
Are those all separate hex stickers so we can arrange them however, or one sticker?
#
aaronpk
gRegorLove: separate stickers
#
tantek
aaronpk: short version: POSSE, IndieWebCamp, IndieAuth look good
#
tantek
WebSub I don't understand what a old-style stereo LED frequency indicator has to do with WebSub, nor the parallelogram below the text
#
aaronpk
the little squares are subscribers, and the line (hub) is keeping them from overwhelming the publisher
#
tantek
"Microformats" should not be capitalized, and I guarantee that tilting the text like that will get people to *align* the text horizontally and thus misalign the logo. we've already seen this with the previous microformats stickers
#
gRegorLove
Same on WebSub, that's my least favorite.
#
aaronpk
'"Microformats" should not be capitalized' ?? i never knew that
#
gRegorLove
Otherwise I generally like them. Would be nice if the font size / placement for each, but realize that's probably not possible (easily)
#
tantek
so "Microformats" should be "microformats", and the text should be horizontally aligned with the bottom of the logo so people line it up correctly. also should be "microformats.org" TBH
#
aaronpk
http://microformats.org/wiki/about is pretty inconsistent with the capitalization
#
Loqi
About microformats | Thanks | People | Colophon Designed for humans first and machines second, microformats are a set of simple, open data formats built upon existing and widely adopted standards. Instead of throwing away what works today, microform...
#
tantek
Micropub: I don't understand why Micropub is a road, or a runway, that makes no sense
#
sebsel
All the other stickers are in one color, but microformats has multiple (even gradient?) that looks off.
#
tantek
aaronpk, no it's lowercase microformats, where do you see any inconsistency?
#
sebsel
Micropub and Webmention really look like space-age tribes
#
sknebel
why IndieWebCamp and not IndieWeb? (just IW would fill the center of the hex better maybe?)
#
[cleverdevil]
Can you make one of them a bikeshed?

#
tantek
aaronpk, then why not make IWS stickers for the summit?
#
sebsel
I agree on WebSub being too... well it can be simplefied.
#
tantek
S similar to the C, just two Cs, the bottom reversed, compressed etc.
#
gRegorLove
"IWS" would also require rebalancing probably
#
aaronpk
there's no "just"
#
tantek
lol true
#
tantek
"no just", "no stickers"
#
aaronpk
really don't think that would work with the S instead of C
#
tantek
Webmention looks like a weird 90s techno flower
#
gRegorLove
Plus balancing longer "indiewebsummit"
#

gRegorLove: no you line break at IndieWeb / Summit

#
sebsel
yeah, leave the C. only 'IndieWeb' is better, but you need the circle to let the rest make sense.
#
aaronpk
this is why github issues work better :) now there are 3 discussion threads happening here
#
Loqi
[aaronpk] #9 Microformats hex sticker
#
tantek
I typed "What could also be cool as a " and then got distracted and forgot what I was going to say
#
tantek
aaronpk, the problem is the need for initial rapid discussion to even find out how many issues / threads there are
#
Loqi
[aaronpk] #11 Micropub hex sticker
#
Loqi
[aaronpk] #10 Webmention hex sticker
#
tantek
what is webmention
#
Loqi
Webmention is a web standard for mentions and conversations across the web, a powerful building block that is used for a growing federated network of comments, likes, reposts, and other rich interactions across the decentralized social web https://indieweb.org/Webmention
#
sebsel
this is the IRC+Wiki model, right? discuss, then capture.
#
tantek
sebsel right
#
tantek
aaronpk: this webmention logo makes sense, is evocative, and VERY simple to work with any color combo: https://indieweb.org/File:webmention-logo.svg (the one on the /Webmention page)
#
tantek
so let's just stick with that instead of abstract art
#
gRegorLove
+1 I like the W-arrow
#
tantek
(being terse just to get quick points out there - apologies for the abruptness sounding, but you said we have just today)
#
aaronpk
I never intended the W-arrow to be the webmention logo, it was supposed to be just for webmention.io, but i guess it's kinda stuck

#
tantek
Honestly a similar M with a downarrow on the rightmost leg of the M would work great too, indicating client down to the server
#
tantek
for Micropub obv
#
gRegorLove
Though I'd be interesting in seeing a variant where the arrow "sides" are perpendicular to the line of the "W"
#
gRegorLove
if that makes sense.
#
aaronpk
i can't picture that
#
tantek
gRegorLove: I know what you mean, yet I think the angle is key to indicate the time axis implied
#
tantek
it's like a network traffic diagram turned sideways - that's why the W with arrow works like that
#
gRegorLove
It wouldn't line up with the top-middle lines of the "W" though I guess
#
gRegorLove
Ah, not familiar with that
#
tantek
except with the W, the x-axis is time, whereas with network traffic diagrams, the y-axies is typically time (downward indicating further in time)
#
tantek
looks up an example
#
gRegorLove
It's fine, not time-sensitive. Other logo feedback is.
#
Loqi
TCP CLOSE.svg
#
tantek
rotate that 90deg counter clockwise
#
gRegorLove
Not suggesting the angle of the arrow change
#
tantek
aaronpk: wait you didn't realize this when I described the idea to you in the first place? I thought I made that clear!
#
aaronpk
i made the W-arrow because I originally had a P-arrow for pingback.me and when I renamed that to webmention.io I just turned it into a W
#
tantek
aaronpk: I specifically remember describing the analogy of the W with the arrow to network traffic to you - we discussed this with V for Vouch similarly!
#
aaronpk
like a backronym?
#
aaronpk
is there a term for that for design?
#
tantek
aaronpk: another relatively "simple" set of graphics for Webmention and Micropub: use the first letter "M" and "W" as shaped on micropub.rocks and webmention.rocks, and put their starburst behind it
#
tantek
and then put "Micropub.rocks" as the text as well as "Webmention.rocks"
#
tantek
I know that's a little different / site vs. term
#
tantek
However, it's a great place for people to start and see, oh this is real!
#
tantek
instead of a spec, or whatever google comes up with
#
aaronpk
like that but in a hex?
#
tantek
nailed it
#
tantek
they also "pop" nicely among other bland tech stickers
#
tantek
and then the ".rocks" domain is self-describing
#
gRegorLove
That webmention arrow is what I mean ^^
#
aaronpk
hm they will be quite different from the others since they'll have multiple colors
#
gRegorLove
It's perpendicular to the last stroke of the W
#
sebsel
yeah, it was my concern with the Microformats logo, but then going the other round
#
tantek
aaronpk I think that's ok for this hurried round
#
tantek
especially since those are existing graphics that represent things we can draw attention to
#
tantek
and want to
#
tantek
instead of completely new graphics that are abstract and mean nothing to nobody
#
tantek
is using too many negatives
#
sebsel
I like the webmention W, in it's form like here https://indieweb.org/File:webmention-logo.svg , so +1 for that.
#
aaronpk
i guess that'd be the difference between a "webmention" sticker and a "webmention.rocks" sticker
#
sebsel
yeah you don't want to get into an IndieAuth.com-situation again
#
tantek
aaronpk: I guess I'm saying it's OK if we have webmention.rocks and micropub.rocks stickers because both of those are awesome sites worth promoting
#
tantek
since we don't have actual logos for Micropub and Webmention *today*
#
tantek
(though we could use the Webmention W^ arrow
#
tantek
and make up a Micropub Mv arrow
#
gRegorLove
Maybe for /2018 we can up the IndieWeb Bingo game by each attendee bringing their own site's stickers and trade. :)
#
sebsel
I want little silo logo stickers to paste into the corners of the POSSE sticker
#
tantek
Personalize your POSSE™
#
tantek
looks at websub.rocks
#
aaronpk
was in a rush with that one
#
aaronpk
it's just the webmention.rocks W without the arrow
#
[cleverdevil]
Hmm, I don't actually see the issue in my markup that eddie mentioned...
#
Loqi
[Jonathan LaCour] Jonathan LaCour ...
#
[cleverdevil]
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
#
gRegorLove
[cleverdevil]: It's an h-review inside an h-entry, which might be Known's default, not sure.
#
aaronpk
oh yeah i remember that
#
[cleverdevil]
Hmm... yeah, it is the Known default.
#
tantek
if you want to look at inspiration
#
[cleverdevil]
Is that actually a problem?
#
gRegorLove
The h-entry doesn't have an explicit p-name so when parsing the h-entry implied name is the plain text of the review instead of the title of the review.
#
gRegorLove
The top-level h-entry isn't really necessary
#
aaronpk
i would go farther and say the top-level h-entry is incorrect
#
aaronpk
the top-level object should be the h-review
#
gRegorLove
Good point. I'd agree.
#
tantek
aaronpk - would be cool to give a nod to PubSubHubbub with a limited edition cross-over sticker
#
tantek
same logo, new name :)
#
[cleverdevil]
I'll have to see if my plugin can somehow instruct Known to *not* include the h-entry.
#
gRegorLove
I think it's a bug with Known core?
#
[cleverdevil]
My plugin doesn't include the text "h-entry" anywhere.
#
gRegorLove
Is review a core post type?
#
[cleverdevil]
But, there may be a way for my plugin to tell Known "don't do that."
#
[cleverdevil]
No, this is a plugin that I've created.
#
tantek
also I can't be bothered to lookup Markdown's crappy image syntax
#
tantek
markdown--
#
Loqi
markdown has -1 karma in this channel (-6 overall)
#
[cleverdevil]
However, many core types are in fact implemented as plugins.

[cleverdevil]
Speaking of bikesheds.
#
gRegorLove
[cleverdevil]: It should be possible. Events have a top-level h-event, e.g. http://pin13.net/mf2/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwerd.io%2F2017%2Fhomebrew-website-club-june-14-2017
#
[cleverdevil]
Yes, I see it.
#
[cleverdevil]
I think I need to implement getMicroformats2ObjectType on my Review object.

gRegorLove
What is Reviews for Known?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "Reviews for Known" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
[cleverdevil]
Can someone check my work?
#
aaronpk
yes! h-review is the top object now
#
aaronpk
now your'e just missing classes around the review title and description
#
tantek
aaronpk - do you have any Webmention.rocks or micropub.rocks stickers left? Also I noticed that the Webmention.rocks sticker I have does not actually say what it is
#
gRegorLove
Reviews for Known is a plugin that adds [[review]] post types to [[Known]] https://github.com/cleverdevil/Known-Reviews

Okay, aaronpk, thanks, I'll take a look at that.
#
aaronpk
oh wait [cleverdevil] it looks like there's an extra h-review now
#
[cleverdevil]
Yeah, I know why.
#
[cleverdevil]
Removing it ?
#
aaronpk
that should clean it up

aaronpk, which makes me think that new hex stickers for both micropub.rocks and webmention.rocks is the way to go for this round - so there are stickers with those URLs on them. we need those anyway, and the design is fairly well defined
#
[cleverdevil]
Okay, try now.
#
tantek
which then implies we might as well do websub.rocks as well since that's also a test suite / nice front door to a spec
#
aaronpk
is there no URL on the existing webmention.rocks sticker??
#
aaronpk
i don't have any micropub.rocks stickers yet
#
tantek
aaronpk no URL, just the diecut W on the starburst
#
aaronpk
[cleverdevil]: better! i see two h-cards now but everything else looks good
#
aaronpk
tantek: funny, i thought i had tiny "webmention.rocks" on the line inside the W https://media.aaronpk.com/Screen-Shot-2017-06-12-15-29-27.png
#
tantek
aaronpk, I like green for the IndieAuth sticker color because it is reminiscent of the green lock of https in browsers
#
aaronpk
it's probably super tiny tho cause those stickers aren't very big
#
tantek
aaronpk, yeah that is there, totally missed it the first three times I just checked the sticker on my laptop :P
#
[cleverdevil]
I think I fixed it once and for all, now.
#
Zegnat
Just reading through the graphics discussion before bed and wanted to discourage an M-downwards-arrow for Micropub. Sounds a lot like the markdown logo.

Nice! Yeah I think that section might be pretty old. Think there's core plugins for video and audio. I def saw benwerd demo audio posts a couple years ago
#
aaronpk
might work better with an M with straight sides
#
Loqi
ahahaha
#
[cleverdevil]
Thanks for the feedback, folks. I've added some tasks for myself to clean up extraneous h-cards and audit the microformats in all of my plugins.

[cleverdevil]
(In Things 3, of course)
#
gRegorLove
Things 3?

gRegorLove
Todo software?
#
[cleverdevil]
Its a task management app for macOS and iOS.
#
[cleverdevil]
And the subject of the h-review we were auditing earlier ?
#
sebsel
lol, that MP-with-arrow is a really good logo for Micropub :)
#
sebsel
Things 3 is great! They launched it during IndieWebCamp Nürnberg, I was in awe.
#
[cleverdevil]
Its awesome. I do wish it had more sync options, but overall, its fantastic.
