Glad you enjoyed[miklb]. Gonna shoot to beach right after summit with family. It’s OC, NJ little too busy for my style but good to catch up with family.

I drove down to Naples FL, hadn’t actually spent any time down there. I liked it.
#
GWG
You are going to OC? I keep meaning to visit an old friend
#
GWG
[miklb]: It is good to have you back
#
[miklb]
I’m ready to get some work done. #1 item on my list is my barebones mf2 theme. Then get micropub working with indieauth on my site.
#
[miklb]
and thanks! Felt good to get some traveling and down time in. Time to make some interwebz
#
jgmac1106
I didn’t know you were suffering from micropub blues as well.
#
GWG
[miklb]: I have a new version I have to finish tonight and submit for pfefferle to certify
#
[miklb]
I caught up on the gist of the discussion on the PR discussion

I need to write some unit tests for my new token code

Gene Giannota, sure we can make up entire back stories of this poor soul I have been tweeting to for a year
#
GWG
jgmac1106: We'll see
#
jgmac1106
atleast this @gwg looks to be of decent ilk, even for a Cubs fan

GWG what do you think about a major version number update, because you removed a lot, so it is not really backwards compatible any more

pfefferle, I am fine with it

Anyone know how folks are getting a note to post on Mastodon? I only get a link to my post
#
jgmac1106
I know some are syndicating through micropub, maybe I add that but [chrisaldrich] seems to display notes

GWG
!tell pfefferle Tonight I'll try fiddling with the Semantic Linkbacks strings
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
jgmac1106_
the autpost to mastodon really slows down WordPress publishing, might have to remove it due to my lack of patience

GWG do I recall correctly that you have a *hidden* debugging feature to check the mf2 of a post?
#
GWG
It isn't hidden
#
GWG
It's a debug for the Post Kinds parsing, which is mf2 plus ogp
#
GWG
?pkdebug=form
#
GWG
If you have WP_DEBUG enabled
#
GWG
It will show a parsing form
#
GWG
If you put in a post ID it will render a post's mf2, a url that URLs data from my parsing code
#
GWG
Why?
#
[miklb]
I want to use it to test locally

[miklb]
got clarification on why WP releases will continue to use 4.9.x until 5/Gutenberg.
#
[miklb]
tl;dr “because WordPress”
#
aaronpk
they don't want to do 4.10 even?
#
[miklb]
no semantic versioning
#
aaronpk
wonder if this is gonna turn into the kind of thing where 5.0 takes so long and has so much baggage that they skip it and go to 6
#
aaronpk
like php
#
[miklb]
Still not sure how going from 1.5 -> 2 throws that whole equation, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
#
GWG
miklb, do you like pkdebug?

[miklb]
haven’t circled back to my theme work yet to test it, but I think I recall seeing it in action before. Seems like a really handy tool and now I have a use for it.
[kevinmarks] joined the channel
#
GWG
[miklb]: Oh?
#
GWG
I use it when I'm tweaking the parser. It encompasses all my tweaks for various sites
#
GWG
What is the use?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "use" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "use is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[miklb]
just checking the mf2 in the theme I’m writing. I’d actually forgotten about it until recently I was without wifi
#
[miklb]
but couldn’t remember how to enable it
#
GWG
Just remember, it maps OGP to MF2, so it isn't 100% mf2
#
[miklb]
well, if I’m testing my local content against it, I should be fine, right?
#
GWG
Yes
#
GWG
Maybe I should add a flag to only do mf2
