setting up a feed reader, remembering the heady days of 2006, microformats, digg, the ze frank show. everything seemed so promising.

tantek: Not sure if I should open a parsing issue, or if there should be an h-review specific github for issues, but adding p-summary to h-review came up when discussing backcompat: https://chat.indieweb.org/microformats/2017-03-06#t1488762928541000
#
gRegorLove
It's not really a parsing issue; the suggestion would just be to parse hReview summary as p-name p-summary.
#
gRegorLove
s/issue/bug/
#
tantek
gRegorLove: oh interesting, I'd want to see a specific use-case for why (e.g. what h-review consumers are looking for p-summary and doing what with it?)
#
tantek
otherwise it's a really bad pollution of an extra property with duplicate information
#
tantek
that frag link you gave is not working
#
gRegorLove
GMT timezone
#
aaronpk
agh i gotta fix that
#
gRegorLove
I've run into that with the log links

aaronpk
i'm not sure what the proper solution is
#
gRegorLove
Yeah, it's tricky
#
aaronpk
i could make the page contain posts from UTC, and then just display them in local time
#
gRegorLove
I think the only use-case now is that it maps to the hReview "summary" property. Not aware of a use-case for consumers currently.
#
tantek
that's not a use case then
#
tantek
plumbing mapping != use-case!
#
tantek
use case much actually involve a user-visible *use*
#
gRegorLove
Ok. Just figured I'd mention it before I forgot it
#
gRegorLove
I don't know if aaronpk might have a use-case
#
tantek
(seriously that is one of the most annoying things from the semweb "community" is how frequently members from said community express various plumbing transmogrifications as "use-cases")
#
tantek
I mean, it's a really bad dev-centric habit that devalues *actual* user needs
#
tantek
and actual use-cases
#
tantek
gRegorLove: it's ok, I've basically taken to dropping such things on the floor since they have zero use impact
#
tantek
zero user* impact
#
tantek
ah looks like there is an FAQ need
#
tantek
since aaronpk was confused about "i would have thought summary would be summary", not realizing the actual use of "summary" in hReview (or hCalendar for that matter)
#
gRegorLove
Understood. Should have put use-case in quotes.
#
tantek
ugh scare quotes
