# heluecht[m] What happened to `https://w3id.org/security/v1`? This page now leads to an non existing Github page, it seems.

# nightpool[m] heluecht: no clue. maybe ask the distributed credentials group? I don't remember if anything ever lived at that page or if it was just the URI
# nightpool[m] cc rhiaro (IRC) might know?

# heluecht[m] At Friendica we are normalizing incoming messages - and the LD signature fields are defined at the URL.

# nightpool[m] ah, yep, it appears to have been a context url, not necessarily just a namespace.
# nightpool[m] yikes, that's not great! I think we have a cached version in the Mastodon repo that you can use in the meantime
# heluecht[m] Thanks! I hope that this URL will resolve soon. But in the meantime I'm coding some workaround.

# nightpool[m] heluecht: got a reply that they've fixed the issue! looks like it's working to me, lmk what you think
# nightpool[m] * heluecht: got a reply that they've fixed the issue! looks like it's working to me, lmk if you see the same

# heluecht[m] Great!
# nightpool[m] I definitely recommend caching the context payload heavily, like Mastodon does
# heluecht[m] Yeah, indeed.
# nightpool[m] besides the reliability issue, I have to imagine the w3 servers aren't exactly happy about the bandwidth usage.
# heluecht[m] Also I saw that Mastodon does provide that link only with profiles, not with posts.
# nightpool[m] I think that's because posts don't use any properties from that contact
# nightpool[m] context
# nightpool[m] * I think that's because posts don't use any properties from that context
# heluecht[m] I really have to have a look into our Json-LD-Library how this is doing the caching.
# heluecht[m] Well, the "signature" is in that context.
# nightpool[m] hmm.... when we insert the signature we should be inserting the context value.
# nightpool[m] but if you just fetch the post there won't be a signature normally
# nightpool[m] I'm not 100% sure, I know we have some code that removes unneeded context statements and I assume that's related.
# heluecht[m] I tested today with mastodon.social. The link isn't provided, even when the signature is transmitted.
# heluecht[m] Okay ... on my both servers and my desktop PC I still get the 404 when fetching the URL via curl. But in my browser (on the same machine) it works.
# heluecht[m] I guess I just go to sleep and have a look tomorrow :-)
