↩️ So what are the alternatives? I could implement WebMention, but that relies on everyone else implementing it also. />{narrator voice} They don't.

{other narrator voice} You might be surprised
#
GWG
Webmention doesn't need others to implement necessarily

Prepping for tomorrow's session by rereading stuff.
#
[tantek]
oh right I should prepare for that too

I hope it isn't just the people who RSVPed
#

[tantek]: Do you have any h-resume or h-card issues?
#
[tantek]
I'm sure I do
#
GWG
Just added an h-card issue from the wiki

aaronpk, on the positive side, at least Webmention was the standards-based peer-to-peer alternative that was mentioned!

GWG, re: "POSSE issue I need to fix where the webmention isn't sending promptly" from #microformats, do you mean the webmention you need to send to Bridgy in order to get it to POSSE to GitHub?
#
GWG
[tantek]: Correct
#
[tantek]
Oooh that's an important one to fix!
#
GWG
The way webmentions work in WordPress is when you post, it queues the webmention to be sent using wp-cron.
#
GWG
So, for some reason, it doesn't always trigger. On my server, I tried to set up a script to launch wp-cron every 5 minutes.
#
GWG
So, is the issue on the code side, or the server side?
#
GWG
This is the same way WordPress does Pingbacks, because otherwise the publishing process would take a while, so it schedules the pingback to run as a scheduled event to start immediately.
#
GWG
It's a poor man's fork
#
GWG
The odd thing is that it sometimes works, sometimes doesn't.

This post was supposed to POSSE to IndieNews, but the webmention never got sent. https://david.shanske.com/2020/09/09/3496/

Is there a place where we brainstormed podcast h-feeds ?
#
GWG
Hmm..here we are... /podcast

GWG
But we don't have brainstorming, we have examples.

What is an episode?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "episode" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "episode is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek]
GWG, Aaronpk, [schmarty] ^ perhaps define that and add prior art in terms of podcasts?
