KevinMarks catching up on the discussion from this morning
#
KevinMarks refs sounds like an extension of the rel-urls from mf2

#
KevinMarks 'the need to check if something is an array, single item, or object' is how we all end up writing little helper functions
#
KevinMarks like https://github.com/kevinmarks/unmung/blob/master/unmung.py#L229
#
aaronpk the ruby parser has a lot of that built in too
#
KevinMarks (many of which are wrong - they really need to recurse as you can mix types)
#
tantek the trade-off is either more helper code, or more {[ ]} in the parsed JSON output
#
tantek hard to get away from that
#
aaronpk it even lets you use the singular form of a property name to return the first value, and the plural name returns an array
#
tantek wat
#
aaronpk yeah it's a Ruby Thing
#
aaronpk entry.photo vs entry.photos
#
aaronpk it handles pluralization of things like "entry" vs "entries" properly, but it looks silly for "in-reply-tos"
#
tantek hah

mkaply tantek: Found the bug that was causing the shiv hang. Put a patch up.
#
tantek mkaply: awesome and thanks!
#
tantek hopefully we can land your patch before the next uplift
#
tantek (not sure what is required to make that happen)
#
mkaply As long as Glenn is able to look at it today, I should be able to get it into Nightly so it will make the aurora uplift
#
mkaply Look at it in the next couple days, not just today
#
mkaply We have until next Tues
#
tantek hmm - that sounds like we should try to move quickly - next Tues is not a lot of time
#
KartikPrabhu what does the mf2 parser in Firefox do? Does FF use it in someway?
#
tantek !tell glennjones could you look at mkaply's patch to microformatshiv ASAP? our goal is to get your review, and land it so it makes it into the next uplift build 2016-03-08 which means we need it at least a day or two before likely.
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
mkaply KartikPrabhu: It's used by a few internal things. It was originally designed to be a component for extensions to use. But no one took advantage
#
KartikPrabhu aah I see
#
tantek KartikPrabhu: we're hooking it up to more things. Like the Firefox Share button (airplane), and hopefully to feed reading etc. too
#
tantek I think we have some bugzilla bugs on it
#
KartikPrabhu so one could make a feed subscription button
#
tantek on uses that is
#
KartikPrabhu oh zing!
#
KartikPrabhu very nice very nice
#
KartikPrabhu mkaply++
#
Loqi mkaply has 1 karma
#
mkaply And coincidentally the group I'm working for now does the microformats stuff to.
#
mkaply It's like coming back home
#
tantek mkaply: that's great to hear!
#
tantek and welcome home :)
