[manton] @GWG No, I'm not going to WordCamp... I went to a one in San Antonio a couple years ago and enjoyed it. Hope to go to one of the US ones in the future.
#
GWG [manton]: I went to the NYC one twice, didn't enjoy it. But I'm told it can vary.
#
GWG [manton]: Maybe I'll see you at another IWC in Austin

[Nicolas_Hoizey] I used the `two-day-event` macro, but Paris Web lasts 3 days (2 days of talks and 1 day of workshops), I guess there will be some issue in the calendar feed
#
[Nicolas_Hoizey] is there any three-day-event macro?

@monotron_ ↩️ Jekyll! That's what I'm using for my blog, it's really easy to set up and can easily be deployed to services like Netlify. Hugo is also really good for similar reasons. Come to @JamieTanna's Homebrew Website Club on Wednesday :D (twitter.com/_/status/1167412582317248512)

[tantek] hmm looks like it's time to stub the September HWC pages so they show up with nice names in the newsletter Upcoming events
#
@tomcritchlow ↩️ Yes! The indieweb is trying with webmentions and RSS etc but it's a surprisingly difficult problem to solve.... My spidersense says *something* new is around the corner though. (twitter.com/_/status/1167527333479288833)

@schlagetown ↩️ Yeah & I feel like it's a hard problem not just technically but conceptually. I'll admit I haven't dug into http://indieweb.org too thoroughly to learn about e.g. webmentions but my impression = great efforts to codify goals/protocols; not super accessible for typical users (twitter.com/_/status/1167529859511398400)

@fluffy ↩️ And the big push in indieweb is to make the protocols available and usable by all, and that includes building tools that are easier to use. Like there are plugins to make Wordpress do all the indieweb stuff without any effort on your part beyond running Wordpress. (twitter.com/_/status/1167533998664368129)

@schlagetown ↩️ Great point! I'm curious to dig in and learn more about indieweb projects. Will play w/ the WP plugin too, thx :) Seems a bit of a chicken and egg problem in that the protocols aren't yet ubiquitous enough to easily demonstrate the value, but need to exist first to be adopted.

[manton] @GWG Following up on WordCamp... One thing that surprised me is that a lot of people are there for CMS-like features for client web sites. That's one reason I'm excited about [tantek]’s talk, because I think the WordPress community might need a reminder to post to their own site too! 🙂

@fluffy ↩️ What I like about IndieWeb is it gives a bunch of small, relatively-easy-to-implement building blocks that provide parts of that, but there's still a lot that needs to happen to make it all work nicely together and provide a UX that's sensible. (twitter.com/_/status/1167544525738217472)
