needs to check if https://chat.indieweb.org/dev/2022-06-23#t1655996745180200 is covered in the VCP for values in the test suite

[omz13] and the bday "-07-10T12:00:00-05:00" should be "--07-10" (if you want to drop the year)

hi
#
Harzilein
how would i go about linking to this as a collection of audio recordings _that carries enough metadata to recreate an album playlist from_?
#
Harzilein
(which is not entirely true, because the track order only happens to be right, it only happens to have all constuting tracks and it only happens to have the track number in the title, which of course is mostly useless for my purposes)
#
Harzilein
s/title/filename/
#
Harzilein
not so sure (i.e. don't remember) about the title
#
Harzilein
i'm sure the zip would contain the necessary sidecar files, but that's hardly accessible to browsers
#
Harzilein
(in before better representations are available at jamendo, archive org and musicbrainz)
#
Harzilein
archive.org*

Put the track data in the mp3 files as well, and make an m3u file for the playlist.
#
Harzilein
i'm not the artist
#
Harzilein
i only want to link to this with a chance agents (like search engines) would recognize it as an album
#
Harzilein
and of course the lazyweb might then eventuelly come up with a way that lets me consume it with my player, which can do xspf at most, it will just error on html.
#
Harzilein
eventually*

HLS streaming supports m3u index files, so linking to that should play it in a browser
#

The other option would be to mark it up as a podcast as search engines look for those.
#
Harzilein
yes, and archive.org _does_ create an m3u. still, that only describes the mirrored content then.
#
Harzilein
also its per-track descriptions are garbage too:
#
Harzilein
https://ia800704.us.archive.org/23/items/jamendo-001290/04.mp3_meta.txt (i'm sure that's the output of some jamendo mirror run, so it's even _another_ generation apart from what i actually want to refer to)
#
Harzilein
let me bite the bullet and actually inspect the mp3 tags
#
Harzilein
it does indeed have Track 4/8 in it, so i guess indeed a smart enough agent could glean from the files that they constitute the entirety of the album

underscore, eh?
#
[tantek]
you can actually put (nearly) anything for the user name segment in a tweet permalink and it will redirect. this is to accommodate people changing their usernames and old permalinks still automatically working

[tantek]
there is an actual _ user though: https://twitter.com/_

↩️ I'm curious how much alignment there is between the two. It'd be nice to see microformats living on in some fashion
