#[jgmac1106]So when you leave someone a DM in most IRC clients and then sign off can you retrieve a response if you sign off
#sknebelthey can't send you a response if you are offlien
#[jgmac1106]Explains why I never get a response. And here I thought I had no friends. Though those aren't mutually exclusive
#sknebeloh, and if you try to DM from slack to IRC that doesn't work
#[jgmac1106]That I knew. Need to spend time setting up VPN to figure out how to get IRC working on Verizon.
#[jgmac1106]Ended up deleting my client as when I lose wifi I lose IRC but it constantly pings eating my battery
#[jgmac1106]Somebody give Loqi. !Whisper power that works like tell but sends msg

#tantek__ooh lets get all those @webstandards photos of @calum_ryan and his slides up on the wiki page so they get into the newsletter!
#jgmac1106_is anyone putting in an #IndieWeb proposal for MozFest? Looking at you [KevinMarks} but really for anyone in EU with funds to get to Ravensbourne MozFest is one of the best conferences I have attended
#tantek__jgmac1106_: everyone who can get to London for MozFest should put in a proposal.
#tantek__Even if you are not sure you can get there, put in a proposal anyway, and maybe see if you can apply for travel assistance
#jgmac1106_yeah it is really cool. I think Jason from HWC-Baltimore was a “Space Wrangler” (a conference strand is called a Space, the organizer a Wrangler) last year he can fill folks in as well. I was supposed to Space Wrangle in 2016 but had to cancel as my brother secretly flew in for Halloween
#tantek__I'm taking another look at the /projects page in another attempt to clean it up for this year's IWS
#tantek__what do people think of limting / curating it to be specifically about: "Projects incubated by and also actively in use by the IndieWeb Community" (and moving any other projects to subpages) ?

#tantek__jgmac1106, miklb I figured you may have some opinions about making /projects more useful, since you've thought a lot about the same kinds of issues for WordPress related setup / projects
#jgmac1106_as long as I am being helpful, don’t want to chase rabbit holes if it doesn’t support folks. I am trying to document each theme, each plugin, and each syndication option but takes time. I think [miklb] idea of just building a framework for mf2 using the tool LinkedIn launched is a good idea
#jgmac1106_I also think we should encourage and recruit popular theme developers to revise their themes, or get community member to make child themes that have correct mf2, everything breaks down there
#tantek__yes that seems like a particular challenge for WordPress, so we can deep dive on that more in the #indieweb-wordpress channel
#tantek__jgmac1106 what I'm wondering about is more the high-level documentation of approaches, people that want to consider WordPress and other options too
#jgmac1106_ohh okay I see what you are saying so almost a starter guide of the projects page https://indieweb.org/projects though I don’t see micro.blog there. Is that an oversight or deliberate?
#jgmac1106_For gen2 folks I see the options as WordPress: pick one of four themes or test out your existing theme, Known-Download from GitHub, install, set up MySQL Database, Micro.blog-sign up for monthky service or how to install on your own, Drupal…..haven’t gotten there yet but has a higher technical barrier, still need to try it for this
#jgmac1106_except now I want to go play with FrancisCMS didn’t know about an RoR option
#jgmac1106_but that would be waaay to hard for most
#jgmac1106_[tantek] what we really need are more one button install options in CPanel or Installatron, just bugged friends at ReClaim Hosting to update their Known packages. They wont’t
#tantek__jgmac1106_: that's worrying. what reason(s) were given for not updating?
#tantek__jgmac1106_: sounds like there needs to be an officially update package (which is a reasonable request), not just "go get the latest from github"
#tantek__and that updated package needs to have release notes about which security bugs have been fixed, which features added etc., which will then help encourage web hosting companies to update to it!
#jgmac1106_[mapkyca] been doing a great job and he launched the “unofficial” release page Ben said an “official 1.0” was coming soon that would be stripping all the commercial packages (Convoy, etc). I would assume that will be the last
#jgmac1106_official release of Known CMS from Known as an entity but that is pure conjecture
#Loqi[superfeedr] "I would add one last step: Publish your tweets from your own blog and syndicate to Twitter using #IndieWeb..." by Greg McVerry on 2018-06-19 https://jgregorymcverry.com/3662-2/
#tantek__jgmac1106_: indeed. just noticed your edit to Getting Started. Not sure I agree with putting community second though perhaps we can reframe it in a way that allows more knowledgable folks to skip it until they need it
#tantek__jgmac1106_: I'd expect that WithKnown as an entity would hand-off any such responsibilities if it didn't want them.
#tantek__jgmac1106_: because he came at it from a very specific perspective, more on the consuming side than publishing
#tantek__and frankly, we can't offer that level of "reading" support to "everyone" yet (not even all of gen1) because it's still proof of concept (very good proof) more than deployed open source that you can go setup yourself
#jgmac1106_yeah my thought as well and we are all stoked for future of readers. His entire thread was about decentralized readers…though while I myself ain’t that religous I think God has quite the market share of bloggers
#tantek__anyway, when the future of readers becomes more present, then we can be more explicit about what's working and usable today on the homepage
#tantek__I'd like to see that sooner than later too, including screenshots of mobile clients showing indieweb reading, with proper chronological timelines etc.
#jgmac1106_They have 14,321 apps in their installer, will push every now and again, or I will add a tutorial using sftp and also updating .9.2 to 9.9.X

#[kevinmarks]Would doing an iwc around mozfest make sense?
#[kevinmarks]My colleagues at digital catapult could be persuaded to give space
#tantek__kevinmarks perhaps? MozFest itself is on the weekend, and TPAC is immediately before that M-F, so maybe right after? but then that starts to collide with Halloween
#tantek__kevinmarks, perhaps reach out (by email?) to adactio and see what he thinks, I know he still wants to help make an IWC Brighton happen this year
#LoqiIt looks like we don't have a page for "Installatron" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "Installatron is ____", a sentence describing the term)
