#sknebelgiven the recent wiki outage, should we setup a mirror for the mf-wiki too? (like the indieweb wiki content files are copied to the indieweb github org). or is at least someone maintaining an offline copy? (aaronpk?)
#aaronpkI don't have anything in place for the mf wiki

#ZegnatFiling PRs is nice because you can discuss and review a change before committing it. While the wiki takes a commiting first and then reviewing the revision sort of flow.
#ZegnatI wondered about putting the text copy of at least the mf2 parsing spec in the parsing spec github repo. That might also make it easier to link to specific points during issue discussion, and changes could be filed as PR.

#Loqi[kartikprabhu] #176 funny parsing of 'u-photo h-cite'
#ZegnatYeah, that probably should be discussed in the text parsing issue over at the parsing repo.
#ZegnatFor my implementation in php-mf2 I replaced all “textContent” requests in the spec with one and the same algo. The question being: was that right? For things like the very final step in u-* parsing, it might be better to stick with raw textContent.

#[jgmac1106]need a reverse parser where I can copy an APA citation from Google Scholar and have it spit out the correct mf2, so somebody fly around the earth like Superman and make thigns work backwards. Proper APA citation and h-cite markup is a bear
#[jgmac1106]...and before I get nerd corrected...yes Iknow that was about time travel and a bizzaro world would be better analogy
#[jgmac1106]and also since it was in the movie it was never canon anyway, but still felt like Superman when I figured out mf2 and APA
#ZegnatIf you can draw out the mapping, I can build you the converter, maybe, [jgmac1106]
#gRegorLove_An h-cite builder like the hCard builder would be cool.
#[jgmac1106]be really cool if you coudl get h-cite listed on the bottom of the citation modal in Google Scholar...but I am sure those companies pay big bucks to get there
#tantekespecially with a pop-up select for citation style, APA, etc.
#[jgmac1106]for new pubs the doi # would make this pretty straightforward as I think about it
#[jgmac1106]but that just links yopu back to the publishing silo actually
#[jgmac1106]click on the bibtex file everything is there that you would need
#[jgmac1106]@zegnat I may just try to map it out using a workflow of going to Google scholar>copying the BibTex and throwing that into a modal with a selection for citation style. AssumingI would just need to make the proper mf2 template for each style.
#Zegnattantek: I think the consensus between sknebel, ancarda, and me, is that the theoretical problem of thundering herd is always going to exsist for something like readers. If everyone hosts their own reader, once you send a WebSub ping into the world that there is a new post, they are all going to wake up and come at you.
#ZegnatBut there are several technical mitagations we could think of. Usual caching, of course. E.g. making your website resist DaringFireball/Slashdot. Another thing that would be interesting is to make readers not respond to a ping immidiately (thus staggering the load from the requester side), but you can never be 100% sure that every reader is doing that.
#Zegnatancarda had the interesting idea of also not doing a simultaneous websub ping to everyone. If you yourself control the websub hub, you can send the ping staggered to e.g. 5 subscribers at the same time and spread the load even further.
#tantekespecially for a CC image - which requires that
#[jgmac1106]okay will keep working on the bookmarklet to see if I can have it spit back an h-cite
#tantekif you are doing a repost then that has its own markup
#[jgmac1106]These are images embedded in my posts, technically a repost but really just an image that I dig that is also openly licensed. Just pull it in from Flickr API using Alan Levine's tool. I think I will be able to maker an mf2 version
#tantekit's not technically a repost unless that's all there is to your post
#tantekmore of an #indieweb-dev specific discussion
#[jgmac1106]okay will share it there when I mess with the plug-in

#[jgmac1106]I think in my context yeah I would use u-feature as it it kind of the "hero" image of the page...especially if SM treats that like a twitter card I would add to my header
