eprodrom
bblfish: let's chat
#
bblfish
what's up?
#
eprodrom
Well, first of all, you're saying nasty things about me all over the Internet
#
eprodrom
And I'd like it to stop immediately
#
bblfish
It's the fist time in 10 years that you contact me
#
bblfish
did we meet once in Paris?
#
eprodrom
Not applicable right now
#
bblfish
It is you have never bothered to contact me in 10 years. Now you don't know what is feasible
#
bblfish
and your lack of knowledge is pushing you to make this group a farce
#
eprodrom
So, I'm going to ask the other chairs to step in.
#
bblfish
you are welcome
#
bblfish
I'll push this all the way up to the top of the W3C
#
eprodrom
And we're going to freeze the User Stories page till Tuesday
#
bblfish
because this group is not just a way to rubber stamp what your prejudices
#
bblfish
if you want discussion then stop playing games
#
bblfish
I mean what's the point of going to the W3C to build a centralised Social Web?
#
bblfish
We have those allready
#
eprodrom
Anyways, you'll be talking to Tantek or Arnaud or both.
#
bblfish
Well and if needed you'll be talking to Tim Berners Lee
#
bblfish
all of us
#
eprodrom
But I'd appreciate it if you could take some time away. This will wait until Tuesday.
#
eprodrom
Thanks.
#
bblfish
Tuesday you have the vote
#
bblfish
so you want me to wait until Tuesday so that you can then get a quick vote
#
bblfish
OR do you want to get this sorted out before hand
#
bblfish
I think the mailing list is the better channel
#
bblfish
I am sure with a bit of work if you cared about neutrality we could get user stories that were not so clearly biased
#
aaronpk
I don't see the bias of non-distributed stories in the initial list
#
aaronpk
like this "Responses" one could just as well happen across distinct servers https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg/Social_API/User_stories#Responses

#

aaronpk: Why was there initially a "Proposed" list and then the "Additional" section
#
bblfish
proposed by whome?
#
bblfish
It sounds nearly like "proposed by the group"
#
bblfish
aaronpk: and it's only because at the last minute Evan added all at the top "You can assume that all of these stories are independent of network topologies. The stories should work whether all the people have accounts on a single server or if they have accounts on different servers."
#
bblfish
but that's pretty weak.
#
aaronpk
I guess that was implied before? Glad to have it clarified.
#
bblfish
but there are differences, which I tried to make clear by adding more explicitly the distribution
#
bblfish
In a fully distributed case, you have to give someone your identifier, or find it
#
bblfish
aaronpk: here is a clearly non decentralised use case "Delano meets Beth at a company meeting. They are both user interface designers."
#
bblfish
I purposefully created three sub sections there for more or less distributed versions of that story
#
bblfish
these were all pushed into the "Additional" stories
#
aaronpk
I don't understand the two sections of the page, I thought the purpose of this week was to collect everything into a flat list
#
bblfish
if the top statement that topology is not important is true, then why make stories where it contains topology.
#
aaronpk
I do understand not wanting to introduce hierarchy into the page, like not trying to make subsections
#
bblfish
the subsections were there before I posted
#
bblfish
I just thought one could gather stories about following together
#
bblfish
just to make it easier for the reader
#
bblfish
furthermore these stories don't even beginn to show what is interesting about a Social Web
#
bblfish
what is interesting is how it can help people form different companies work together
#
bblfish
without loosing their data
#
bblfish
not just companies but associations, governemnt, schools, etc, etc...
#
bblfish
so making topology clear is important
