Wasn't there a HWC Eastern scheduled for today? Or am I misremembering?
#
[schmarty]
a Thursday?
#
[Joe_Crawford]
Is that a definitive "no" answer?
#
[schmarty]
i think a lack of HWC Eastern on this page is the definitive "no", haha https://events.indieweb.org/
#
[tantek]
and the two HWC Eastern listed in Past Events wer both on a Wednesday
#
[Joe_Crawford]
In my memory there was an upcoming Eastern event yesterday. Today I see none, and nothing recent on the Past Events page. My memory must therefore be faulty.
#
capjamesg[d]
I had one on my calendar for today.
#
capjamesg[d]
It's still on there actually!
#
capjamesg[d]
(from the IndieWeb calendar)
#
capjamesg[d]
I think it was scheduled but then moved?
#
[Joe_Crawford]
I also have it in my calendar software. My memory is therefore not faulty. So yes, [schmarty], a Thursday! 😄
#
[schmarty]
quelle surprise!
#
[Joe_Crawford]
Curious to know what happened. Event deletions and edits I thought showed up in meta or stream or maybe events channel.
#
[mattl]
I messed up and deleted it once I realized I made a mistake
#
[Joe_Crawford]
Good to know!
#
[Joe_Crawford]
I do think a delete ought to show up as a chat message somewhere. To whom can I make this suggestion?

And it's perhaps not great that the event seems to linger in calendar software.

[Joe_Crawford] agreed. I think that's aaronpk's area?
#
[Joe_Crawford]
[aaronpk] there was an event scheduled for today - HWC Eastern - it was deleted but it a) lingers in calendars which subscribe (me and James) and b) I think like event creation sends an IRC message, I think a delete ought to send an IRC message.
#
[tantek]
spooky ghost of an event!
#
[tantek]
haunting capjamesg[d] and [Joe_Crawford]’s calendars 😂
#

#
[tantek]
keeps reloading yesterday's HWC Europe event hoping for an updated photo 🥹
#
aaronpk
Agreed on delete messages to IRC
#
aaronpk
if you want to cancel an event there is a cancelled status which will set the cancelled property in the ICS feed. If you just straight up delete an event, it is removed from the ICS feed, and I can't control what calendar apps do with that
#
[Joe_Crawford]
Thanks [aaronpk]++

#
[tantek]
it's very similar to the deleted Atom/RSS feed item problem and what "feed readers" do with that
#
capjamesg[d]
What do readers do with that?
#
capjamesg[d]
I have never thought about that.
#
[tantek]
short answer: deletes don't work with RSS/Atom, it's an unsolved problem from a UX perspective
#
sknebel
I think for Atom there is a tombstone spec, but I have no idea how widely thats supported
#
sknebel
aaronpk: maybe deleting an event should prompt and ask to consider cancelling/moving instead?
#
[tantek]
sknebel it's not and there's no test suite for it.
#
aaronpk
Yeah probably worth prompting to mark as cancelled instead
#
capjamesg[d]
[tantek] done!
#
[tantek]
cajpamesg[d]++ thanks! I've removed the earlier photo (so only the larger photo shows up in the newsletter)

[tantek] The other photo had Manny in it.
#
[tantek]
I thought it was a proper superset 😞
