If anyone has a better page name or redirects, those may be helpful. I've left it kind of floating in the wiki until we can settle on a name for it and anchor it into some of the other pages as necessary/helpful.

As part of my project list for IndieWebCamp London 2020 (participating remotely), I started a Colophon page for my website, primarily to enumerate some of the plugins and tools I use to publish to my website. (https://boffosocko.com/?p=55769256)

There was some talk about jmac’s Bise yesterday. I’ve been using it for a few weeks now and I would be happy to give a quick run-through during demo time. But I do not want to take time from anyone who is actually working on a project today. I’ll be spending my day polishing tomorrow’s podcast, not working on a project, but I will be finished by demo time. I’d better be.

Is it a known issue that messages on Slack by Cheuk are not visible on IRC?

I think there is also a problem when Replies to a thread are not also sent to the channel. But I could be wrong.

yes we have to encourage people not to thread in Slack

I’m in another one where *nobody* sends to the channel, and I’ve got used to it, but I don’t like it and so I try to model the behaviour I do like.
#
jmac
I am fine with different Slacks having different cultures regarding threading; I was cranky about it for a while too but clearly a lot of folks like the idea of having (essentially) ad-hoc sub-channels
#
jmac
But it's different in this case if the intent is a platform-neutral chat, of course
#
sebsel
there is also just a bug that could be fixed :)

I thought messages iin a thread did get sent to IRC still, they just obvs don't show up threaded in IRC
#
[jeremycherfas]
I’m getting over my crankiness too, and trying to be like water.
#
sebsel
yea but her messages weren't thread replies.
#
sebsel
it's just that her username contains an underscore, a slash and a space.
#
sebsel
I think IRC does not like that
#
sebsel
the messages aren't in the logs either, but they are on slack.
#
sebsel
And you see people on Slack replying to her.
#
sebsel
but yea don't want to impose a debug session on Aaron
#
[KevinMarks]
The replies go through to the web logs
#
aaronpk
I see messages from her in IRC. Is it just the threaded ones that are missing?
#
aaronpk
wait, maybe I don't, now I can't find them
#
sebsel
https://chat.indieweb.org/dev/2020-03-15#t1584276365023900 after this one, there is a message from her in the Slack history

and it's not in the logs

[[jgmac1106]] [Cheuk_/ Cherrie] [LewisCowles] I may one day try to install Morris, but I am also thinking about trying to use gSheets to store webmentions using webmention.io (went to dev from main)

#
sebsel
and I think it's been going on for a while now, because I keep missing when things begin in London :P
#
aaronpk
Okay yeah it's nothing to do with threads
#
aaronpk
I think it's the slash
#
aaronpk
I think when slack changed how usernames work they also changed it to allow new characters in usernames, so before I had an easy mapping to IRC name but now it's gonna be trickier
#
sebsel
yea they killed the IRC bridge so they could do all these things (threads, weird usernames)
#
sebsel
but that makes this bridge harder
#
aaronpk
When I fix this I should also fix the problem with too long slack names

I hope this is the right chat for questions on the wiki processes.
#
[dem_cx]
Where is a policy for deprecating something on the wiki?
#
[dem_cx]
Can't find any clue both on https://indieweb.org/expand_a_page and on https://indieweb.org/wikifying .
#
[dem_cx]
E.g. https://indieweb.org/POSSE#Services says Bridgy supports Facebook. Meanwhile Bridgy says "R.I.P.": https://brid.gy/about#rip-facebook .
#
sknebel
if the wiki is wrong, just edit it
#
[jgmac1106]
I am okay with weekly. Human contact during social isolation is self care
#
aaronpk
okay figured it out, that was silly
#
aaronpk
it was only replacing the first non-IRC-safe character
#
aaronpk
so if you ever had two spaces in your display name, it would fail too

oh that is done already
#

and live
#
aaronpk
wait do you mean the wiki edit i just made?
#
aaronpk
now i get it
#
aaronpk
let me think...
#
aaronpk
i'm not really sure how that would work, because the chat logs have no knowledge of Slack
#
aaronpk
that /chat-names page is read by the chat logs website
#
aaronpk
the chat logs would have to do the slack-to-irc transformation in order to map backwards from an IRC name to something on that list
#
sknebel
if someone adds a name that doesn't match IRC rules to chat-names Kaja could edit their entry to use the IRC form
#
aaronpk
clever
#
aaronpk
this is how it takes a slack name and translates it to an IRC name https://github.com/aaronpk/Slack-IRC-Gateway/blob/master/gateway.js#L350

does the hotlink time out? or just a precaution?
#
aaronpk
no idea
#
aaronpk
there's a "pub_token" in the URL
#
sknebel
hm... check old links from when it still worked?
#
aaronpk
but that's actually served from a web page that's returned by the API
#
aaronpk
they went through that extra hoop for some reason which makes me think the pub token might be short lived
#
aaronpk
huh found this one and it only has the slack web page URL not the image file https://chat.indieweb.org/meta/2019-02-21/1550717996622900
#
aaronpk
which is not how the integration used to work so...
#
yahwho.org
created /User:Yahwho.org (+81) "Created page with " == Fumbling in the Dark == Please forgive my ignorance - this is all new to me.""

I seem to have a natural ability to break stuff just by trying to use it normally
