• Webmention Etiquette & Display Discussion
  • https://colinwalker.blog/blog/?date=2024-05-29
    • "The webmention spec details how they work but not what one should do upon receiving them. A social norm needs to develop here so that those implementing them have a reasonable expectation as to their handling."
    • https://micro.blog/petebrown/38064609 -- Tracy's webmention went as a direct reply
    • gRegor Morrill: sounds like a bug in micro.blog interpreting replies incorrectly, I filed a micro.blog issue: https://github.com/microdotblog/issues/issues/265
    • recommendations document gathering what the community has learned about Webmentions -- what should people expect both building and using it
    • could be useful to have an indication that a comment was a webmention -- not distinguished from other comments
    • could post length be a cue to not display the entire text as a reply? or the post having a title?
    • mentions and replies should display differently
    • Joe Crawford example of a post which was webmentioned, but not a reply, to jeremy keith's post, and it seemed like rather more of the content (all of it) posted to adactio.com's than was expected - https://artlung.com/blog/2024/05/08/declarative-vs-imperative-programming/ https://adactio.com/articles/21110#comment108241

• Re: displaying comments (reply posts) from webmentions: comments
  • If it's not a reply post, then technically the receiver shouldn't be processing/displaying it as a comment

• Avatar images displayed with webmentions and comments
  • https://gravatar.com/ - associates image with an email address - WordPress native comments check email address for a Gravatar profile image

• • Tracy and Joe, try define( 'WEBMENTION_LOCAL_AVATAR_STORE', true ); in your wp-config.php
  • saves a local copy of a webmention commenter's profile image
  • XOXO Fest https://xoxofest.com/ more XOXO
  • Front End Study Hall tomorrow!

• IndieWeb work parties to collectively make things
  • This is the issue for modernizing the indiewebify.me codebase: https://github.com/indieweb/indiewebify-me/issues/82

• are there guidelines for developing *for* the IndieWeb community? e.g. deciding what language to use
• how to decide on the scope of the project?
  • phase 1: migrate to modern framework
  • phase 2: change content -- e.g. remove IndieMark / Levels
