# Cult I have a quick question regarding AP: if userA remotelly follows UserB and someone reply to a Note from UserB, UserA does not receive any update ?
# nightpool[m] Cult: it depends on the addressing of the reply
# nightpool[m] see https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/#inbox-forwarding

# eprodrom Hi all
# eprodrom SocialCG meeting in 5 mins
# eprodrom SocialCG December Meeting https://www.w3.org/wiki/SocialCG/2018-12-12
# fun360 Hi! :)
# fun360 I've been invited here by Christopher Lemmer Webber
# eprodrom Great!
# eprodrom Are you on Mumble?
# fun360 I just advise that in 30 minutes I have to go, so I hope to get the chance to make my proposal before leaving :)
# fun360 nope
# fun360 I open it
# eprodrom OK
# eprodrom Well, we've got a pretty brief agenda
# fun360 I'm there but I don't see anybody
# eprodrom Yes I'm just about to arrive
# eprodrom Or not
# fun360 XD
# eprodrom I'm going to have to participate via IRC, my mumble setup is working badly
# eprodrom trackbot, start meeting
eprodrom_ and trackbot joined the channel
# eprodrom_ trackbot, start meeting
# eprodrom_ Grrr
# eprodrom_ OK, I'll just do minutes by hand
# eprodrom_ trackbot, status
# fun360 sounds like everything is working perfectly today :)
# eprodrom Indeed
# eprodrom Well, I'm filling in as chair
# eprodrom I'll just copy-and-paste the meeting notes
# eprodrom Let's just do it on IRC
# fun360 ok
# eprodrom TOPIC: discourse on activitypub.rocks
# eprodrom Do you want to give an overview of the idea?
# fun360 sure
# eprodrom fun360, can you give an overview?
# eprodrom Still there?
# fun360 I'm collaborating with several projects and is missing a central place where people can find each other for several reasons
# eprodrom So, a lot of people who are working on AP?
# fun360 since AP is about creating communities, first I think is needed the human side about community
# Cult nightpool[m]: sorry, got pulled somewhere else in my code. I'll have a look to your link !
# eprodrom fun360: technically, this community group is supposed to be that place
# eprodrom We have a group that's managed by the W3C
# eprodrom https://www.w3.org/community/socialcg/ <-- here
# fun360 many projects don't even know about AP, and when I talk about it they ask me technical help, which I cannot provide right now
# eprodrom We've got mailing lists, this IRC channel, Github, and wiki
# fun360 yep but we have to face the reality that people need more easier tools for sync together: right now they use https://discourse.joinmastodon.org
# rialtate[m] Since discourse doesn't support activitypub I think it's an incredibly bad idea. However, https://socialhub.network/ already exists for that purpose.
# fun360 I didn't know about https://socialhub.network/
# eprodrom Oh great
# eprodrom This is the first time I've heard of it
# fun360 me too
# fun360 for me is not about Discourse itself
# eprodrom It's about having a forum people can use
# fun360 but something you, as AP team, promote as "meeting point"
# eprodrom Different people like different kinds of interfaces
# fun360 yes
# fun360 a generic place, not Mastodon or some other platform related
# eprodrom RRSAgent, make logs public
# rialtate[m] I think it's much better if the forum is AP powered so people who already have AP can participate and also so it can be federated and not siloed
# fun360 if https://socialhub.network/ is generic is perfect, just nobody knows about it XD not even me that I've been looking for it :P
# eprodrom I agree, rialtate[m]
# fun360 AP powered forum would be even more amazing :)
# eprodrom Yes, but afaik it doesn't exist yet
# eprodrom It's a great idea for a project though
# fun360 that's why I proposed Discourse, it's ready and opensource, nothing stop anybody to add AP
# fun360 actually can be the first topic :P
# eprodrom Can we do this? Let's add a link to socialhub.network on the SocialCG wiki
# eprodrom See if that helps
# fun360 who manages https://socialhub.network/?
# eprodrom I don't know
# eprodrom Can you follow up there?
# eprodrom We're closing in on 30 minutes so I think we should wrap up
# fun360 I can investigate a bit, but now I've to go, can you give me your contact so we can continue this speech later?
# eprodrom I think working through the CG is the right way to get things done
# fun360 ok
# fun360 anyway for me linking https://socialhub.network/ in the AP homepage is a good solution
# fun360 :)
# eprodrom Great, I'll add an issue on Github
# eprodrom With that, let's adjourn the meeting
# fun360 :D
# fun360 thanks for everything!
# eprodrom Sure
# fun360 hope more and more projects will join AP ;) I'm with you!
# eprodrom Great thanks!
# rialtate[m] Afaik the only activitypub groupware is the one I am working on with saranix, Loogie.
# rialtate[m] There is an instance at https://adhoc.group . It currently federates with activitypub and email (mailinglist style) and 5 other protocols are in heavy development with more planned.
# rialtate[m] It is not yet open source though. I just refactored one feature and touched like 75% of the code to do it so open sourcing would just create massive confusion at this early stage.
