reidab
is there a consensus about representing IM services in h-card? p-nickname + value-class pattern?

reidab: can they be URLs?
#
reidab
some of them can be
#
tantek
reidab prett sure all of them can be: http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-examples#New_Types_of_Contact_Info (all written in terms of classic hCard, but translating to h-card is easy enough)

tantek meant to say: reidab pretty sure all of them can be: http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-examples#New_Types_of_Contact_Info (all written in terms of classic hCard, but translating to h-card is easy enough)
#
reidab
thanks
#
tantek
now as far as native mobile device support for those URLs, who knows
#
tantek
but they are valid URLs
#
tantek
(that e.g. the providers themselves use)
#
reidab
I'd been thinking there wasn't a way to link to IRC effectively, but I found a URL scheme that looks somewhat valid
#
tantek
there is a way to link to IRC *channels* but not people (pm/dm)
#
aaronpk
i saw a way to link to a nick
#
aaronpk
it was odd
#
reidab
irc://irc.freenode.net/reidab,isnick
#
aaronpk
that's the one
#
aaronpk
not all clients support it
#
tantek
the ",nick" syntax? yeah no one supports it, and everyone treats it as trying to link open the channel #reidab
#
tantek
no worse than that
#
tantek
it is not only not supported, but it does *something else* in clients
#
aaronpk
probably because , is not consistently handled in URIs
#
tantek
it just never got adopted
#
tantek
I know I researched it too
#
tantek
tried it in a bunch of clients :(
