balessan Hello there !
#
balessan I have recently dived in your indie-web plugins suite and I am having some questions
#
balessan I saw it's using Webmentions, webfinger, salmon and pubsubhub protocol ( please correct me if am wrong )
#
balessan which of them being really interesting and used by gnu.social, mastodon and diaspora so I assume if should properly be interoperable
#
balessan I get it allows us to decentralize, but not yet distribute totally
#
balessan To reach this goal I am pretty fond of the Social Linked Data ( https://github.com/solid/solid/ ) approach, using RDF and LDP principles
#
balessan I was wondering if you have opinions on those approach ?
#
balessan I am personally working on a POC on wordpress related to it : https://github.com/assemblee-virtuelle/wpldp but when I see your solution, I am wondering if I really am useful :-)
#
Loqi [assemblee-virtuelle] wp-ldp: LDP Plugin for wordpress
#
balessan If I take the use-case approach, what we are currently trying to achieve is sharing professional profiles ( skills, location, experiences ), between different organisations, without silo-ing the data
#
balessan And allow the possibility for an organization to search into the federation for covering its needs
#
balessan And for an organization member to search for projects he could contribute to or work on
#
balessan I see the indie-web plugins suite perfect for the Posts / Comments / Identity sharing, but what about more professional-related needs ? Is it possible to easily extend it to use custom post types ( such as projects and organization )
#
balessan Lot of questions here sorry :-)
#
balessan Hi @Loqi :-)
#
balessan I am thinking Social Linked Data would be the ideal approach but as I get you're more into practical approachs, I'd like to get your feedback
#
Zegnat Hi balessan. I think most of this channel wakes up on US times so an answer might be pending
#
balessan Yes I was thinking about that :-)
#
balessan No worries, I just wanted to launch the topic !
#
Zegnat IndieWeb is very much about adding semantics on top of existing HTML, which is why most of the tools build on microformats rather than RDF / et al.
#
balessan Ok
#
Zegnat I don’t see a lot of data on sharing work related stuff :( https://indieweb.org/resume
#
Zegnat You might want to discuss things specifically IndieWeb related in #indieweb as it isn’t WordPress specific. There are usually more people online in that main channel as well. Though it too has been relatively silent this sunny Saturday morning (for me)
#
balessan It's not completely WordPress specific, but it's WordPress centric in my current work so I assumed it was better to discuss it here first. If you disagree, I would move the discussion :-)
#
Zegnat The idea of how to share professional profiles is an interesting one, and not WP related imho.
#
balessan Yep yep I do agree
