Loqi [preview] [angelogladding] #187 Prepare release for 1.1.3
#
angelo the tests action is failing because we need to deprecate py2 but we need to push this release before we can deprecate py2

#
[KevinMarks] OK, lets break the loop (sad as I am about deprecating py2 for the sake of fixing test infrastructure, which seems backwards)
#
sknebel its not quite that
#
sknebel rather "if we deprecate it anyways, dont bother to fix the test infra briefly"
#
sknebel also TIL mf2py wasnt on readthedocs, I could've sworn it was :D
#
c​apjamesg We now have new mf2py docs: https://microformats.github.io/mf2py/
#
c​apjamesg sknebel angelo has spent upwards of 6 hours trying to work with 2.7 but we ran into persistent issues. We could pushed a version that uses an old version of Ubuntu for the sake of maintaining the test suite for a final v2.7 release, but we aren't changing the codebase.
#
sknebel ... didn't I just say that I'm fine with releasing without doing that?
#
[KevinMarks] I make a distinction between deprecation for the sake of it versus deprecation because we're changing to some better way of doing things (eg I could maybe see a case for using html5lib fully rather than the BeautifulSoup plus arbitrary parser fallback like we do now, and that causing us to drop support for py2 but reduce dependency weirdness)
#
[KevinMarks] That sounds like we are hitting that point with 2.7 (I have previously seen projects just arbitrarily remove backcompat polyfills to deprecate an old version when that doesn't make any difference to users of the current version)
#
sknebel 2.x support was mostly kept for bridgy, which doesnt need it anymore for quite a while
#
c​apjamesg Oh haha I got mixed up. Sorry!
#
c​apjamesg [KevinMarks] angelo also had some feedback about html5lib vs. lxml, and how that ties into BeautifulSoup.

#
capjamesg I plan to work through a few this weekend.
#
sknebel capjamesg++ for taking this on
#
Loqi capjamesg has 4 karma in this channel over the last year (112 in all channels)

sknebel hopefully with a few more people helping we can get this project up to shape again!
#
capjamesg I just published the final Python 2 version to PyPi, and created a release on GitHub as appropriate.
#
capjamesg sknebel If you want to review PR #179, please do!
#
capjamesg Oh, the test suite is also working via GitHub Actions again.
#
sknebel not tonight, really sleepy. but happy to give stuff a look on the weekend
#
capjamesg Yay!

#
capjamesg Should we do a microformats roundtable cc GWG?
#
GWG capjamesg: 2021 me is all in
#
capjamesg How about 2023 you?
#
GWG He's frustrated we failed in 2021 and 2022
#
GWG And wants to figure out what would make it successful
#
capjamesg Why did we fail last time?
#
GWG No one did their homework
#
GWG https://indieweb.org/2022/Pop-ups/Sessions#Microformats_Roundtable
#
GWG And the date thing

capjamesg Working on srcset code: https://github.com/microformats/mf2py/pull/188
#
capjamesg angelo Do you want to work on the black and pyproject.toml work?
#
Loqi [preview] [capjamesg] #188 Implement srcset parsing support
#
capjamesg Is this usable? https://github.com/microformats/mf2py/pull/166/files
#
angelo not as is
#
capjamesg Want to draft a new one?
#
capjamesg Or work from that branch?
#
angelo sure
#
angelo i'll try to modify the current one
#
capjamesg The code is quite hard to read without black haha.
#
capjamesg If you can finish that today, I'll run black on the codebase and also work on implementing type annotations.
#
angelo capjamesg do you want me to update the tests for the most recent merge (enable-alt-text)
