[grantcodes] I'd be all for that as long as it works (which I'm sure it does). Are there criteria in place for using it on microformats.io? Like number of people using it etc?
# [grantcodes] And same question for potentially moving it to a community organization on GitHub in the future (if [aimee] wants that of course) but I'd like to see that as that has been a big issue with the other one going unmaintained. Although someone could have forked it but obviously noone wanted to 😅

# 
[aimee] If the community wants to pull it in, I’m for it

# [aimee] As for npm, if the repo ownership was to transfer to a community organisation, so should the npm package, and we should consider scoping it

shimmy1996 does mf specs respect anchor links? looks like xray parser does, but is it part of the spec? I'm trying to see if I can get away with just stuffing all comments in one page instead of giving each of them its own pages

[jgarber] shimmy1996: If you haven’t seen them yet, there are a few possibly related issues on the microformats2-parsing issues repo: https://github.com/microformats/microformats2-parsing/search?q=fragment&type=Issues
# shimmy1996 thanks a lot! #44 was exactly what I was looking for.

# [grantcodes] I actually have the unused @indieweb org on npm but that might not make sense for the mf2 parser. But I'll try it out soon 🙂

# [aimee] @microformats is not available sadly
# [aimee] Hmm, @microformat was available, that might do? I registered it so we have it...

# 
[KevinMarks] sounds good. I wonder who has microformats
# [KevinMarks] it's likely to be someone we know
[tantek] joined the channel
# [aimee] Yeah, we should explore that first

# 
KartikPrabhu maybe it is glenn jones who wrote the previous microformats parser in javascript?
[grantcodes] joined the channel
# [grantcodes] https://www.npmjs.com/org/microformats don't know if there's any way to figure out who has access to it though
# [grantcodes] https://www.npmjs.com/policies/disputes someone officially affiliated with microformats could probably claim it on squatting
# [grantcodes] But only if it is actually going to be used

# [aimee] Npm seemed to be decent with disputes when I did them in the past. I published a package with a work account that I lost access too got it back
# [aimee] Also would we ever have more than one package in the organisation?
[KevinMarks] joined the channel
# [KevinMarks] Is it worth putting non-node code in npm?
# [KevinMarks] We have other microformats related algorithms like author discovery and post types that are inbetween indieweb and microformats
# [KevinMarks] Also potentially richer things based on the rel microformats like identity consolidation and friend graphs that may make sense being mf2 rather than indieweb
# [KevinMarks] And xoxo for real old-school code. That feels like a useful npm package
# [aimee] Non node as in browser? Or?
# [aimee] Yeah I’ve also been looking at post types 😉
# [KevinMarks] I meant python/go/Ruby etc. I don't think that belongs in npm, but I was wondering if anyone does that.
# [KevinMarks] I don't think we have anything worth doing the wasm thing to.
# [aimee] No we shouldn’t bundle other languages in the org
# [aimee] I’m not sure if we need an organisation unless we want to publish more, maybe we would just need to make sure we have enough people as maintainers on the package in case someone goes quiet
# [aimee] Other languages there wouldn’t be much use, you’d want to use the respective package manager
# [KevinMarks] A js version of https://github.com/microformats/xoxo maybe
# [KevinMarks] The other one we could adopt is https://code.google.com/archive/p/google-sgnodemapper/
