# 00:23 [snarfed] whoa angelo you decided to include metaformats in the mf2py release after all?
# 00:26 capjamesg Angelo and I were on a call for a few hours.
# 00:27 capjamesg We are doing a release tomorrow.
# 00:27 [snarfed] right, but the metaformats PR got merged, and it sounded like it was waiting until after 2.0
# 00:28 capjamesg Talking about the PR on a call helped me understand it a bit more.
# 00:28 capjamesg Given this uses mf2py code and integrates nicely -- and non-intrusively -- it feels reasonable to have it in the parser.
# 00:29 capjamesg I think having an extensions API may be premature optimization. Maintaining such an API is a burden and if we only have metaformats and the alt text attribute it may not be worth it.
# 00:29 capjamesg [snarfed]++ for the implementation!
# 00:29 capjamesg I can't believe how fast you made it a reality 😄
# 00:29 capjamesg [snarfed]++
# 00:29 Loqi [snarfed] has 1 karma in this channel over the last year (125 in all channels)
# 00:29 capjamesg There we go!
# 00:30 capjamesg And it is thus merged!
# 00:30 capjamesg (A message that would have made more sense before you said that haha.)
# 00:30 capjamesg Did you have any fast follows in mind?
# 00:31 capjamesg We don't have to release tomorrow.

# 02:12 [aciccarello] I mentioned I'm working on some suggested changes to the spec but that seems like a fine starting point.
# 02:16 [snarfed] next step for tests would be mixed sources, eg OGP + Twitter + meta tags, to check the priority order
# 03:53 angelo coming up with good tests/doctests is tough. capjamesg said we need a style guide.

# 11:29 [KevinMarks] One thought on extensions - a way to add new fallback rules to the main code and the meta might be interesting. I have done that by brute force before to make sense of particular sites. We could review what the 'reader mode' extensions do, for example.

# 19:18 capjamesg I am going to eat dinner then will do that.
# 19:18 capjamesg Did you add all the changes to the changelog?
# 19:18 capjamesg (estimated time to get back to this: ~1 hour)
# 19:19 angelo oh! i suppose there's probably other changes before this last run of PRs
# 19:46 capjamesg I can make something for Sunday 😂

# 23:04 Loqi [preview] [snarfed] #213 Add extension to support metaformats

# 23:14 [tantek] documented ^ with similar guidance, so if other parsers consider blocking them they can do the same thing
