question: the microformat for marking titles is p-name, but is there a way to markup sub-titles? example: https://kartikprabhu.com/article/indieweb-love-blog I want to markup "or: how I learnt to stop worrying and love the blog." as a subtitle
#
KartikPrabhu
thought of p-summary but that does not fit at all
#
aaronpk
interesting!
#
KartikPrabhu
in the old microformat1 you might think entry-subtitle but nothing in microformats2
#
aaronpk
"title" is kind of a dirty word in mf2 land iirc
#
KartikPrabhu
more use cases: In my feed I wouldn't really want the subtitle as it might be long as in (https://kartikprabhu.com/archive/year=2014) but some one referring it might want to put it there like: http://adactio.com/links/6757 where adactio uses the <title> attribute I think instead of p-name
#
aaronpk
seems like it's definitely worth collecting examples of this
#
KartikPrabhu
what is the proper place to record these?

KartikPrabhu: Maybe use summary for both title & subtitle?
#
tantek
Doesn't seem like there's a use case for *separately* marking up subtitle.
#
KartikPrabhu
summary seems to be something completely diff though. Like the little blurbs on my article feed page
#
tantek
It can be used for that too
#
KartikPrabhu
I was hoping to automatically parse my HTML article files and auto-generate the feed summaries using p-name for title and p-summary for the blurbs. Similarly auto-parse "p-subname" and include that if it isn't too long.
#
KartikPrabhu
but it is true that not a lot of people have subtitles on any post at all
#
tantek
Yeah, hgroup had the same problem. Insufficient actual usage.
#
KartikPrabhu
if I decide to use an experimental microformat name what would you suggest? p-subname sounds not so nice :)
#
tantek
p-x-subtitle maybe since that's what you called it in the first place?
#
KartikPrabhu
cool. will consider that. thanks :)
#
KartikPrabhu
tantek: on the x-* issue. Why put the x-? if it is experimental people won't look for it in the parsed mf anyway right?

#
tantek
The -x- helps make it more clear that it's experimental. It'll still show up in the Json.
#
KartikPrabhu
so it is sort of an active warning. seems reasonable
#
tantek
Right
#
tantek
I think that's on the main /wiki/microformats2 page
#
KartikPrabhu
read up on -x- . I also like the vendor prefixing use case! pretty nifty
#
KartikPrabhu
!tell tantek: how about commandeering "p-additional-name" from h-card to be used with h-entry for "subtitles" ?
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell him that when I see him next

aaronpk, re: http://twitter vs. https://twitter - didn't we decided to *NOT* auto-match those for security reasons?
#
tantek
I thought that was in the FAQ
#
aaronpk
at some point we decided that http -> https redirects are fine, but https -> http are not
#
aaronpk
and I don't see any reason not to treat http://twitter and https://twitter separately
#
aaronpk
er, not double negative
#
tantek
so we're not requiring people to link to https versions of profiles when available?
#
aaronpk
if we assume http -> https redirects are ok, I can't think of a good reason to require it
#
aaronpk
this latest change also treats https://github.com/aaronpk and https://github.com/aaronpk/ the same
#
aaronpk
(github serves my profile page from both URLs rather than sending a redirect)
#
tantek
that's annoying
#
aaronpk
it is, but it's also not really relevant to the protocol
#
tantek
did we decide http -> https redirects are ok only when it's the same domain?
#
tantek
or regardless?
#
tantek
aaronpk - the site-deaths that you moved to past - did you confirm that they're actually dead?
#
tantek
e.g. myopenid appears to still be functional - hence why I put it in the "Any Day Now" section instead of "Past"
#
aaronpk
I think regardless, because it's a security upgrade
#
aaronpk
myopenid wasn't resolving for me when I checked...
#
tantek
i was *just* able to sign into it
#
aaronpk
oh weird, yeah me too
#
aaronpk
i coulda sworn it wasn't working earlier
#
aaronpk
maybe was a temporary glitch
#
tantek
interesting about j12t saying "Cloud is out" - since he was co-organizing the Personal Cloud meetups. http://upon2020.com/banter/2014/05/31/new-motto-cloud-is-out-privacy-indieweb/
#
tantek
loom.com appears to still be up
#
tantek
In general if you're not sure (i.e. you haven't double-checked), move things to "Any Day Now" rather than past. Past = dead. Confirm it.

and oops somehow I was chatting in #microformats when I meant to chat in #indiewebcamp
#
KartikPrabhu
I was wondering about this :P
#
tantek
aaronpk didn't correct me ;)
#
aaronpk
was wondering if tantek was using #microformats as backchannel for indieauth talk
