Hey saranix. I wasn't sure it was really needed on a tah. And
#
ben_thatmustbeme
Gah, sorry, have a 2 year old sleeping on my arm
#
ben_thatmustbeme
... needed on the a tag. Other specs seem to not allow it, which is nicer for Discovery, but after looking in to it more, it seems common to allow it
#
ben_thatmustbeme
I should remove that note
#
Loqi
I agree

MMN-o: looks like there is a bit of bad microformats in GNUSocial
#
ben_thatmustbeme
should probably just remove any mark-up on the mentions, or add a wrapper class <span class="h-card"><a class="u-url p-nickname mention"> for example

#
cwebber2
tantek: first things first, let's look at the minutes to see if they can be approved or not
#
rhiaro
sandro isn't available I think
#
cwebber2
PROPOSED: Approve https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg/2017-06-06-minutes as log of last week's meeting.
#
aaronpk
wasn't there so will abstain
#
cwebber2
RESOLVED: Approve https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg/2017-06-06-minutes as log of last week's meeting.
#
cwebber2
tantek: let's talk about ActivityPub first, go in agenda order
#
cwebber2
scribenick: rhiaro
#
rhiaro
cwebber: the update is short. Progress on test suite. Either next week or the week after I'll have something up publicly for c2s stuff
#
rhiaro
... the main blocker this week was that I thought I could get thing implemented without having to do the faux server receiver, but it was necessary because even though this was for c2s server only when you add addressing, the server on the other end might end up posting to the address you're giving and that could result in surprises for the server
#
rhiaro
... so in order to make sure the server doesn't freak out I had to add that
#
rhiaro
... but it's coming along
#
rhiaro
... we'll see something up and running in a couple of weeks
#
rhiaro
tantek: sounds like a good approach
#
rhiaro
... I feel like aaronpk had to do something similar for micropub
#
rhiaro
aaronpk: I didn't quite follow all that but there were definitely some tricks I had to deal with for micropub
#
rhiaro
tantek: are there any new issues on ap?
#
rhiaro
cwebber: there is, but I haven't reviewed it yet
#
cwebber2
scribenick: cwebber2
#
ajordan
cwebber2: which issue was that?
#
cwebber2
ajordan I don't have it off-hand
#
Zakim
cwebber2, you typed too many words without commas; I suspect you forgot to start with 'to ...'
#
cwebber2
topic: websub
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: nothing to do with the test-suite, we need more people to submit reports
#
cwebber2
tantek: how many do we have?
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: 2 hubs, 1 publisher, 1 subscriber
#
cwebber2
tantek: ok
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: newest one, wordpress plugin, added last week, which is a publisher
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: here's a link to the report
#
cwebber2
tantek: progress at least from last week
#
Loqi
[Julien Genestoux] WebSub
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: yes, and I've staged a new ED here
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: the current change is adding http 410 ???
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: making sure that satisfies the original commenter
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: and other than that I can't remember where we were with publishing a new CR
#
rhiaro
oh there's a thread on this, lemme check
#
cwebber2
tantek: I believe we were waiting to see for Sandro to see if this... I think we decided it was a normative change but it didn't impact any existing implementations was more of a clarification? I think Sandro was looking for guidance from Ralph to see if we could publish without resetting the clock
#
rhiaro
We got a reply from Ralph which asked a question, then no follow up
#
rhiaro
Not quite
#
rhiaro
Sandro replied
#
rhiaro
no follow up from ralph
#
rhiaro
Ralph: Is this a repeat of [#102][1] or a similar change in another place? - Sandro: "It's similar in feel & scope to #102, but it's different: https://github.com/w3c/websub/issues/106"
#
Loqi
[Alkarex] #106 Suggestion: Use HTTP 410 Gone
#
cwebber2
tantek: so it's at back and forth, ok. if anyone wants to... aaronpk do you have a changes link?
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: of course
#
cwebber2
looks good
#
cwebber2
tantek: ok so it became a suggestion based on experience
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: yes, it technically wasn't allowed beffore
#
cwebber2
tantek: ok so we're loosening conformance requirements?
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: yes, and it's a MAY not a SHOULD
#
cwebber2
tantek: ok I think that's what we concluded last week as well
#
cwebber2
tantek: let's get that on the record that the group has reviewed it?
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: yes last resolution was on May 23rd, move to adopt behavior if it didn't restart, but I believe there was no added text for that
#
cwebber2
typed PROPOSED: publish updated websub CR with clarifications and changes based on implementations that we believe should not reset the clock
#
cwebber2
but was tantek doing it?
#
cwebber2
PROPOSED: publish updated websub CR with clarifications and changes based on implementations that we believe should not reset the clock
#
cwebber2
RESOLVED: publish updated websub CR with clarifications and changes based on implementations that we believe should not reset the clock
#
cwebber2
tantek: ok that moves us on to the next topic, unless there are new issues that are normative and you want to look at?
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: there is an issue from Julian from last week... not sure I want to discuss it with the group, it's a huge change and I think there's no quick resolution to this
#
Loqi
[julien51] #110 Topics
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: I'm fine continuing disussion on github and postponing for future revision
#
cwebber2
tantek: so you're suggesting this is a future version? we've already punted lots of things we don't have implementations for
#
cwebber2
tantek: from a quick read of this I don't see how this could work with anything that... it could be a reuse of an existing spec, but it could be a brand new feature and i can't tell
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: yes I think there isn't necessarily a clear path forward on this yet. i get what he's trying to do, and I think this specific suggestion isn't the only way to do it. it's possible to do this using something that would make less of an impact on the spec, and that's what we should explore first
#
cwebber2
tantek: ok
#
cwebber2
tantek: anyone else have opinions to contribute?
#
ben_thatmustbeme
I have begun work on another hub
#
cwebber2
tantek: ok I won't suggest anything for the group to resolve, hopefully we can move forward next week then
#
ben_thatmustbeme
will need to look at that issue closer
#
cwebber2
aaronpk: ok I think this could be similar to something mastodon does, so I'll leave it for the discussion calls for tomorrow
#
cwebber2
tantek: ok, if we can get feedback from the CG that would be great
#
cwebber2
+1 to CG feedback
#

#
cwebber2
tantek: last week one of the things we talked about is one of the things we can do to help Mastodon and other emerging social sites adoptions of our specs is one of the examples people have discussed is webmention, and a key to that which would be useful for at least Mastodon is when you receive a webmention and detemine it's valid, how would you tell what kind of post it is?
#
ben_thatmustbeme
they call it "Boosting" i believe
#
cwebber2
tantek: so I took that as input for PTD, and I have an update for everyone
#
cwebber2
that's right ben_thatmustbeme
#
cwebber2
tantek: it's ready to be turned into a WD, that's all the WD-meta stuff to be changed. that's the respec live versions of the document source
#

[tantek] #24 add a subset algorithm for Response Type Discovery
#
cwebber2
tantek: the issue I added that it's solving is ^^^
#
cwebber2
tantek: I added the changelog ^^^
#
cwebber2
tantek: my proposal is to publish this update to PTD with this use case of when you're trying to determine what kind of valid response it is, what's the easy steps you can take to do the valid PTD parts. what's the valid PTD aspects that are trying to advance current implementations?
#
cwebber2
I didn't get that as a formal proposal
#
cwebber2
eprodrom: is this a ???
#
ben_thatmustbeme
s/???/working draft?/
#
cwebber2
tantek: yes it's showing an updated, simpler algorithm that I believe reflects existing implementations rather than the current algorithm, so gives a lower barrier to entry. let me link to the exact new section
#
cwebber2
eprodrom: I def get the context, trying to understand where we are in the editorial cycle
#
cwebber2
tantek: it's another WD
#
cwebber2
eprodrom: with this addition, it's already up as another WD
#
cwebber2
tantek: up with group's review
#
eprodrom
PRIP
#
cwebber2
eprodrom: we can do a few things, a proposal to publish a new WD, I don't think the group has had a lot of chance to review, but I don't think it's as high stakes since it's a WD
#
cwebber2
tantek: I also made a minor addition basedd on that request
#
cwebber2
tantek: one paragraph and five items, plus a subset of the existing algorithm rather than a bunch of new things. deliberately tried to constrain changes
#
eprodrom
PROPOSED: publish new working draft of Post Type Discovery based on new editors draft
#
cwebber2
tantek: if people want a lot more time to review that's fine too
#
eprodrom
+1
#
cwebber2
eprodrom: here's the proposal, personally I think it sounds like a good candidate for a new WD
#
cwebber2
cwebber2: +0.5 because I haven't been able to pay attention very well while scribing
#
cwebber2
cwebber2: but sounds good
#
ben_thatmustbeme
its a pretty small difference, so it should only take a moment to review it
#
ben_thatmustbeme
or rather, a pretty quick read
#
eprodrom
RESOLVED: publish new working draft of post type discovery
#
ajordan
enjoys the sounds of nature coming from Evan's mic
#
cwebber2
eprodrom: will there be time in the CG meeting to discuss this update?
#
cwebber2
tantek: sure I'm happy to raise it there, or to defer to other CG topics as well, since the CG has a lots on its plate
#
cwebber2
eprodrom: anything else on PTD?
#
eprodrom
q?
#
Zakim
sees no one on the speaker queue
#
cwebber2
tantek: I think that's it, there are currently 13 open issues, I think I resolved another one as well, if anyone has any new issues or would like to discuss, otherwise I'll try to keep cranking away and will try to resolve in the best way I can
#
cwebber2
eprodrom: ok, handing back the gavel

where did everyone go?
#
rhiaro
cwebber: there are two sections in AP while writing the test suite written with shoulds but seem to belong in security considerations. very difficult to write tests for because they're very suggestive
#
rhiaro
... the first one is SHOULD on server does not client submitted content
#
rhiaro
... about making sure you don't just trust that you get this message just because it came along to you and that depends on what mechanism you're using for auth
#
rhiaro
... I can kind of write a test for that but it's a bit goofy
#
rhiaro
... The otehr is more significant, a SHOULD on taking care not to overload other servers with delivery submissions
#
rhiaro
... that one is very hard to write tests for
#
rhiaro
... asking the server 'are you blasting with a bunch of information', probably never goign to capture that in tests
#
rhiaro
... wonder if people are okay with moving that to security considerations? Would be inline with what'st here already
#
rhiaro
... Can file issues for next week
#
rhiaro
tantek: we should be diligent about having issues for normative changes
#
rhiaro
... That way it'll hopefully solicit additional input

#
ben_thatmustbeme
gah... case sensative
#
tantek
seriously, please lowercase it all so we don't have to worry about casing
#
aaronpk
MW won't let you lowercase the first letter
#
tantek
no MW will just redirect it if you do
#
aaronpk
i actually thought it was totally case insensitive by default
#
tantek
https:w3.org/wiki/socialwg works
#
tantek
I thought so too but apparently not
#
tantek
point is, stop putting / typing uppercase letters in urls. you don't need them
#
cwebber2
we agreed on SocialCG per that resolution in the CG
#
cwebber2
let's not re-open it...
#
tantek
cwebber2, not on the casing
#
tantek
we agreed to make it parallel to SocialWG
#
tantek
so yeah in the URL paths, that should be the same as what SocialWG does, which is /socialwg
#
cwebber2
I know sandro specifically argued for making it SocialCG because Socialwg is confusing on the wiki (since you have one uppercase letter but you don't consistently maintain it)
#
tantek
it's less efficient to type uppercase letters in urls
#
tantek
and that reason is insufficient to diverge from what /socialwg already has
#
cwebber2
it's especially inefficient to keep artuing about it
#
cwebber2
arguing
#
tantek
not for all the mistyping / broken links in the future you have to worry about by having to worry about upper/lower casing properly
#
cwebber2
naming disagreements are where productivity goes to die
#
tantek
but yeah, if you want to make the CG urls more fragile, then that's the CG's problem
#
cwebber2
I refuse to spend any more of my time on this topic today, since I'm actually being productive :)
#
cwebber2
goes back to work
#
tantek
is going to just keep typing /socialcg links and not worry
#
tantek
will delegate the case-sensitivity issue to those who care to maintain that
#
cwebber2
tantek: ... that's going to cause a lot of inconsistencies ...
KevinMarks joined the channel
#
tantek
cwebber2, it's insisting on /SocialCG that is causing inconsistencies. that could be fixed right now before it gets worse
#
tantek
we consistently used /socialwg and https://www.w3.org/wiki/socialig already

tantek
with lots of subdirectory / docs under both
