schmarty i'll fill out the accommodation sections soon. there are several good hotels nearby. airbnb should also be possible as it's near a neighborhood known as Federal Hill
#
schmarty there's even a hostel a short ride north on a (free) bus
#
schmarty hmm. aaronpk, i got an error trying to RSVP. URL here: https://martymcgui.re/2017/12/07/110001/ webmention error as reported by telegraph: "Webmentions are only accepted for current events. The target in your request was not the URL of a current event."
#
Loqi [Marty McGuire] I'm going! Beyond excited to be co-organizing the first-ever IndieWebCamp Baltimore! Join us January 20th-21st at the Digital Harbor Foundation Tech Center for a day of learning and discussions about the IndieWeb, followed by a day ...

#
aaronpk oops
#
aaronpk weird
#
aaronpk oh wait no that's probably cached by your browser
#
schmarty (maybe cached by my browser?)
#
schmarty haha yep
#
Loqi ahaha
#
aaronpk fixed the image!
#
schmarty woo, thanks!
#
schmarty i was able to walk through the ti.to process for my indie RSVP, so that part also works. i think i will do a pass over the wiki page for travel and accommodation info and then start advertising like crazy!
#
schmarty aaronpk++ thanks again for all your help getting this going
#
aaronpk sweet
#
aaronpk hopefully this will be the year I launch the new event site so we can streamline this in the future

aaronpk I get it now
#
ben_thatmustbeme :lightbulb:
#
schmarty i'm bridged to IRC via the matrix.org freenode bridge and it's been having trouble the last ~24+ hrs
#
schmarty i am not convinced that i am back.
#
aaronpk k logs should be running again
#
schmarty haha, yeah, i saw sknebel's messages, but not aaronpk or ben_thatmustbeme from the last 10-15 minutes.
#
Loqi nice
#
schmarty (comparing to the web chat)
#
aaronpk freenode has had a rough time this morning
#
sknebel aaronpk: any easy to explain reason how that happened?
#
aaronpk the log bug?

#
seblog oh boy, I have no idea what the best practices are with copying those pages.
#
seblog Should I remove or just comment out cities I don't know?
#
seblog manual and it hurts right away
#
sknebel seblog: keep regular cities (https://indieweb.org/Homebrew_Website_Club#Regular_Meetings) if the date fits in their pattern
#
sknebel and yes, that's always a piece of work :/
#
seblog I'll copy 2017-11-30, since there will be just HWC Berlin at the same time ;)
#
sknebel don't, that likely won't be on 1-11
#
sknebel or copy it, but put yours in place of berlin ;)
#
aaronpk I was messing with nginx auth config and added the SSO proxy to the chat logs. there was a bug in the auth module that rejected the request if it had an invalid authorization header, whereas it was supposed to pass it through just without setting the auth_user
#
sknebel ah. and because we all were logged in we did get to see the logs
#
sknebel ?
#
aaronpk no, if there was no header it worked fine
#
sknebel ah
#
aaronpk but the logger sends its own authorization header but not in the format the proxy expects

aaronpk anyone have something they finished yesterday they could add here? I totally forgot https://indieweb.org/2017-12-indieweb-challenge
#
tantek wait did we miss yesterday?
#
tantek didn't IWC Baltimore get announced?
#
tantek that's worth it
#
GWG tantek: Did it?
#
GWG A date?
#
aaronpk ooh
#
tantek I think schmarty even blogged it
#
gRegorLove Yeah
#
tantek yes IWC Baltimore 2018 was confirmed and announced yesterday AFAIK
#
gRegorLove When is IWC Baltimore?
#
Loqi https://indieweb.org/IWC_Baltimore
#
tantek (apologies, multitasking, no link offhand)
#
aaronpk perfect
#
gRegorLove come back Loqi
#
GWG tantek: Yesterday was a very trying day for me.
#
GWG I'll look now
#
GWG Dates
#
GWG Good
#
tantek GWG I appreciate
#
tantek what happened today?
#
GWG tantek: I'll answer that privately.
#
tantek GWG, sorry didn't mean to ask personally. meant more in terms of IWC Challenge
#
GWG tantek: Well, I was going to do some stuff on the plane, but they are blocking SSH
#
GWG So I think I'll blog a bit
#
GWG I have to read this challenge
#
GWG But I did add a lot of fixes to various plugins over this month

#
gRegorLove tantek: I'm taking a stab at updating /personal-domain
#
tantek great. it needs it
#
gRegorLove Removed Namecoin. Don't think it's even worth putting in See Also, given /Namecoin#Issues
#
gRegorLove Do we have a few (3) domain name registrars we might recommend as a community? Or maybe not recommend, but we can figure out the top-three most commonly used in the community?
#
aaronpk my 3 are dreamhost, namecheap, and gandi
#
aaronpk we have some on https://indieweb.org/domain_name_registrar
#
gRegorLove Thinking of moving /personal-domain#Free_Domain_Names to /free-domain-names and indicating it's more advanced
#
gRegorLove That leaves /personal-domain pretty succinct. How and Why sections.
#
sknebel sounds good
#
GWG We've now begun our descent into Austin's Bergstrom airport. Indiewebcamp begins for me
#
gRegorLove Ok, /personal-domain is a lot shorter. :) Any other additions to improve it?
#
sknebel maybe add that domain privacy isn't possible on all TLDs - that could be an important basis to choose (in general, some content on TLDs would be nice at some point, even if its just something like ".com/.org/.net/.de/... are considered reliable, others might be less so or have price hikes")
#
sknebel but nice and short is good
