Where's this documented? 17:04:56 in my and jeena's head right now :) 17:05:01 Can anyone scribe for us for this meeting? 17:05:07 rhiaro: indiewebcamp.com/collection 17:05:13 I can scribe 17:05:24 scribenick: rhiaro 17:05:32 audio is a bit crackly though, I'll do my best 17:06:16 TOPIC: Approval of minutes 17:06:18 https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg/2015-07-07-minutes 17:06:42 PROPOSED approve minutes of 2015 07 07 17:06:45 +1 17:06:46 +1 17:06:47 +1 17:07:00 +1 17:07:00 i just joined the call 17:07:08 +1 17:07:28 RESOLVED approve minutes of 2015 07 07 17:07:30 TOPIC: ActivityStreams2 17:08:03 eprodrom: We voted previouslyto publish a new version of AS2. James, where are we with that? 17:08:04 eprodrom_ has joined #social 17:08:20 jasnell: Sent an updated copy of drafts to harry two weeks ago, haven't heard back, so going to set up new tool so I can push it myself 17:08:26 ... Will update group as soon as it's done 17:08:32 eprodrom: harry has been on vocation, not on the call today 17:08:41 ... echidna? 17:08:51 RESOLVED: approve minutes of 2015 07 07 17:08:58 jasnell: Yes. I need an auth token from the w3 team lead. Harry or sandro will need to provide that 17:09:02 ... Sent a request to harry 17:09:22 sandro: If harry can't do it today I'll look into it 17:09:42 eprodrom: otherwise docs are ready to go? There was editorial work over the last couple of weeks 17:10:02 Jsnell made 1 edit to [[Socialwg/2015-07-14]] https://www.w3.org/wiki/index.php?diff=85036&oldid=85035 17:10:13 jasnell: The only question is, there have been editorial updates since we voted, so if folks want to revisit and publish the current editors draft, or go with the one we originally approved 17:10:31 eprodrom: IIRC we resolved to approve, subject to minor corrections 17:10:36 jasnell: But some of the changes are substantial 17:10:41 ... I'll published the one we approved the previous week 17:10:45 eprodrom: That sounds reasonable 17:11:02 ... If we're in a good editoral flow, it makes sense for us to plan for another WD in the enxt month or so, and speed up the schedule 17:11:16 ... Anything else you need from other members of the group to get this going? 17:11:31 jasnell: Just need the auth token. Everything else I should be able to set up on my own. If any issues come up I'll work with harry or sandro directly 17:11:51 ... Did add more AS2 items to agenda 17:12:17 ... Updates based on discussions on github. I have added Organization back as an Actor. There was discussion in favour. 17:12:33 ... Removed as:Favorite as an activity type because of the overlap with Like 17:12:46 ... Favorites are really a collection of things that have been liked 17:12:50 ... If folks do not agree let me know 17:12:53 favorites-- 17:12:54 favorites has -2 karma 17:13:15 ... Also restructured the git repo to be a closer match with what's being published. New directory structure, so the links to the editors drafts have changed, but I've added redirects 17:13:24 ... Added more expansive friend request example 17:13:32 present+ csarven 17:13:34 in favor of removing as:favorite (actually get that minuted) 17:13:36 Slack's extension of like/fav to liek with emoji is intersting 17:13:36 ... These additionals and removals need to be reviewed 17:13:56 eprodrom: You removed as:Favorite not Favorites 17:14:03 jasnell: yes 17:14:05 http://slackhq.com/post/123561085920/reactions 17:14:12 ... Type in the wiki. Favorite not Favorites 17:14:19 s/Type/Typo 17:14:42 eprodrom: you've called for specific responses. I'm interested in the change in the purpose. That seems to be closely related to API issues 17:14:53 ... Not sure if that's something we should see come up more on Social API 17:15:10 ... Any feedback on this? Adding purpose to collections? 17:15:15 ... This was discussed just before the call 17:15:24 jasnell: I'll give an overview of the issue 17:15:43 ... The basic idea is to add a new property to an object which identifies its semantic purpose, or to use ane xtension on the @type 17:16:16 ... We have a purpose field that says eg. purpose:favorites, or @type Favorites 17:16:30 ... Could exist on Collections or any other type of object to give you a context on why it would exist 17:16:39 http://w3c-social.github.io/activitypump/#collections 17:16:48 which would be better for multiple types within a collection? 17:16:49 eprodrom: activitypump defines a number of different collections for each actor 17:17:07 why do we need anything other than a name for the collection? 17:17:09 ... You would see that as something we'd add in addition, to specify what those collections are for 17:17:26 q+ 17:17:39 jasnell: Be good if peole can weigh in on github or next week 17:17:47 ack aaronpk 17:17:57 https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/188 17:18:11 q+ to note that none of our user stories actually explicitly talk about collections, perhaps we should drop the feature from AS2 17:18:27 aaronpk: I do have what you're calling collections on my site. Different sets of things like the things I've favorited, or posts about bike rides. What is the purpose of making a machine readable value for the type? 17:18:38 ... If you just name them, people can figure out what they are. What's the use case for machine readable? 17:18:41 jasnell: discoverability 17:18:46 hhalpin has joined #social 17:18:56 aaronpk: You can look at the names of things 17:18:57 also, a type doesn't really give reason 17:19:03 jasnell: if it's a human doing the discovery then yes that works 17:19:27 ... If you want to automate the discovery, having an identifier that's consistent and not subject to localisation issues, translations etc, then having the machine readable identifier is preferred 17:19:43 aaronpk: Okay, so finding specifically the list of what someone has liked, if you want to find everybody's streams of what they've liked 17:19:55 ... Implies there is a vocabulary for this 17:20:02 Tantekelik made 1 edit to [[Socialwg/Social syntax/User Stories]] https://www.w3.org/wiki/index.php?diff=85037&oldid=81653 17:20:11 jasnell: It's very similar to the use of link rels, but rather than attaching it to the link it's attaching it to the object 17:20:17 ... Just giving it a consistent label 17:20:27 ack tantek 17:20:27 tantek, you wanted to note that none of our user stories actually explicitly talk about collections, perhaps we should drop the feature from AS2 17:20:59 +q 17:21:10 tantek: Wondering if the challenges we are having discussing collections is one example of... AS2 has a lot of features in that arrived with the first draft, but for example the whole notion of a collection is not actually in any of our user stories, except for one with multiple objects. User story about voting on user stories. Other than that there's no user stories with collections 17:21:16 ... Maybe it's something we can drop. 17:21:34 -q 17:21:43 eprodrom: I'm not sure that's the case. In AS, most of the ideas of a stream or having multiple activities or objects available at a particular endpoint are implemented as collections 17:21:50 ... Like being able to navigate someone's list of friends 17:21:51 I was just going to chime in that inboxes/outboxes in activitypump are collections 17:21:57 how can you have a stream without the concept of a collection 17:22:05 q+ 17:22:07 tantek: I guess the challenge I'm having is that collections are like a simple array. Which I agree does make sense. 17:22:10 ... That's just a data structure 17:22:12 so that's a lot of our user stories 17:22:27 ... But when we start talking about giving a collection a special label or type, then I start to think that's not necessary for just having lists of friends 17:22:38 ... The term collection might be being misused, or at least confusing 17:22:54 ack ben_thatmustbeme 17:23:00 A collection tends to be an unordered list, while an array is an ordered list. 17:23:03 you still need some way of identifying the collection in meta. like, how many items does it have? etc 17:23:19 i.e. a set vs. an unordered set. 17:23:19 q+ 17:23:25 ben_thatmustbeme: Couple of qustions. Once you specify one type: here's a collection that only contains favorites. What if my collection contains multiple types? 17:23:26 I think you can call it more or less whatever you want :) 17:23:32 i plan on publishing collections with multiple types of posts fwiw 17:23:32 ... I could just to through the collection and find the type of everything that's in there 17:23:36 Wouldn't different typed items belong in different collections? 17:23:42 eprodrom: Good question 17:24:05 ... In case of favorites, the thing favorited might be 'audio', 'video', 'note', etc. What makese them favorite is that they're members of this collection 17:24:06 this is odd because in practice we do have "likes" as objects/posts 17:24:13 jasnell: that's exactly the point 17:24:13 I already have multiple post types in the same "collection" actually (what I would call feed/stream) http://aaronparecki.com/metrics 17:24:23 ... Just knowing the type of objects that are in that set don't tell you why they're there 17:24:32 friends 17:24:37 here are my likes http://aaronparecki.com/likes 17:24:48 collection is like an object in JS {} 17:24:57 I do like the way favorites/likes currently show up as objects in pump.io currently 17:25:14 ... With AP, this notion of inbox and outbox. If you have one collection URL, how do you know whether it's an inbox or outbox? How do you know what it is for? 17:25:22 and yeah the permissions thing does happen, sometimes I see someone liked a thing I can't see what it is :) 17:25:26 that's an interesting thing 17:25:29 ... Having some way to explicitly identify that roles makes it much more explicit 17:25:43 ben_thatmustbeme: Sounds like we need another set of vocabularies for types of collections 17:25:58 no, melvster because {} requires named keys 17:26:08 jasnell: I'd rather avoid it. I'd rather not have it be extensive as another set of terms. But looking at the API we already have these notions.. We already see merging some of these concepts of different types of collections 17:26:23 tantek: What API for inbox? 17:26:23 it a list [] without assumed order 17:26:31 jasnell: ActivityPump, pump.io 17:27:17 eprodrom: There's also list of friends, followers, people you're following, list of people you've put into a collection (like g+ circles). 17:27:23 in many cases rel= and description could solve a lot of the issues 17:27:37 eprodom++ 17:27:38 eprodom has 1 karma 17:27:39 collections are critical to activitypump's current design 17:27:42 ... The thing that's interesting here is that instead of having a list of friends, we have a list of the activities that created those friends 17:27:49 eprodrom++ 17:27:50 eprodrom has 22 karma 17:27:54 ... I think that's an interesting question. I wonder if there is value to one side or the other 17:27:58 ... To me I'd rather have the people than the activities 17:28:00 it would be a total restructuring of everything if that were dropped 17:28:06 +1 to list of People, not activities 17:28:07 ... I don't know if there's a good answer for the other 17:28:25 and it would have serious repercussions in what tsyesika is doing structuring things in mediagoblin too 17:28:36 jasnell: For things like your friends list, we have the relationship object, so you could have a collection of thos eobjects. You could infer friends from that. So not necessarily have the explicity purpose 17:28:51 ... But for things like likes, favorites, sharing, saving. Those are much more difficult to infer 17:28:52 lots of things, playlists of audio/video, feeds of things you like, feeds you subscribe to, those are pretty critical 17:28:57 (infer from properties?) 17:29:04 or from name? 17:29:05 example.org/evan/favorites 17:29:17 eprodrom: Another thing you cold do to infer it is look at /favorites and see if a collection is returned to me 17:29:22 ... Then I know what that is 17:29:40 ... /favorites is an example url, could be /whatever. Just because I was looking for favorites. 17:29:43 cwebber2++ 17:29:45 cwebber2 has 38 karma 17:29:47 ... Seems useful, not sure if it's crucial 17:29:55 tantek: I think I understand now what James was saying about rel values 17:30:13 ... If you have a rel value that says rel="likes-feed" that gives you a way to do discoverability and the feed itself desn't have to say anything 17:30:17 eprodrom: this is almost the rev in html temrs 17:30:24 ... These are the likes of someone else 17:30:40 these are others' likes of my post? a facepile? 17:31:00 jasnell: There's a number of different ways of doing. Need to make a decision. Do we want to attempt to do everything implicitly where we look at the contents of the collection to see what it's for or do we want an explicit identifier 17:31:09 ... Or do we do it with the object itself using link rel 17:31:16 ... Just need to know what people would like to see 17:31:39 ... Issue 188 17:31:48 eprodrom: Let's contineu the conversation in the issue 17:31:53 ... And see if we have an update for our next call 17:32:06 ... Let's move on if no more questions 17:32:15 TOPIC: Social API 17:32:24 There aren't actually any updates 17:32:32 scribenick: hhalpin 17:32:39 https://github.com/w3c-social/Social-APIs-Brainstorming/blob/master/socialapi.md 17:32:46 Not sure if people have looked at that 17:32:51 Should we move onto the Webmention topic then? 17:32:52 Just a few headers, with some comparison stuff 17:32:57 Not changed since last week though 17:33:08 I updated: https://github.com/w3c-social/social-ucr a fair amount 17:33:15 rhiaro: are you on the call? 17:33:36 rhiaro: we've put this document together but haven't had much feedback 17:33:41 ... no time to update, so it's the same 17:33:55 ... however, we encourage people to look at it, will be working on it by end of week 17:33:59 ... start of strawman 17:34:16 eprodrom: moving from comparison to strawman 17:34:27 ... still micropub and activitypump evolving side-by-side 17:34:54 ... we'll continue this development and this doc will track those 17:35:04 rhiaro: if there's a convergence we add it there 17:35:20 q? 17:35:30 ack jasnell_ 17:35:31 q- jasnell_ 17:35:31 q- 17:35:56 eprodrom: Next steps is continued work in activitypump, micropub, and tracking similarities 17:36:17 tantek: As far as an update is concerned, I would be intereted in hearing when the prototypes are done 17:36:32 ... there is a certain status right now, but how much is prototype and kinda working? 17:36:42 ... or how much is an API design that hasn't been prototyped? 17:37:14 aaronpk: My goal is to drive contributions while I have code working on it 17:37:19 ... I've got a backlog of code 17:37:31 ... so that's why I haven't contributed as much 17:37:37 ... as I'm coding first 17:38:05 eprodrom: Everyone on the call should understand that this work will have a convergened version that will have one spec, correct? 17:38:15 aaronpk: That was my understanding, but I don't want to make suggestions till the code works 17:38:21 rhiaro: Mine as well 17:38:52 ... comparisons are definitly potential, as well as where htings are done diferently, maybe two optioins in one spec 17:39:07 eprodrom: Very reasonable sounds good! 17:39:17 topic: charter license update 17:39:32 scribenick: rhiaro 17:40:02 sandro: Nothing new to share with the group. Issues to straighten out, hoping to get approval from w3c tomorrow or a week from tomorrow, then will go to AC 17:40:12 scribenick: rhiaro 17:40:33 tantek: One of the actions assigned to me is define how implied post typing works. The more I write that up, the more it sounds like a spec 17:40:54 ... Follow a sequence of steps. If I"m goign to contribute that as a spec, I'd like to do that with the new license 17:41:03 ... So hopefully we'll get through the rechartering quickly 17:41:08 sandro: understood 17:41:12 eprodrom: Moving forward.. 17:41:20 TOPIC: SWAT0 implementation 17:41:57 tantek: As background, SWAT0 is the Social Web Acid Test, is something that myself, evan and david (??) came up with almost five years ago at the Federated Social Web Summit 17:42:04 recordon 17:42:19 ... to provide a difficult challenge for different integrated social services to demonstrate that they are federating in such a way that satisfies a fairly common use case, even at the time, that people were using social networks for 17:42:26 ... I'll summarise 17:42:40 ... A takes photo of B with their phone and posts and tags B i in it 17:42:49 ... Then B is notified that someone posted a tagged photo 17:43:07 SWAT0 A posts+tags mobile photo of B B photo notified C(follows A) sees it; replies A&B comment notified 17:43:10 ... Person C who is following A, sees the photo post from A and in the same interface, replies or comments o nthe photo 17:43:26 ... Both A (author) and B (tagged) get notified 17:43:31 ... about the comment 17:43:39 ... THat's a fairly common thing people do on any photo social network service 17:43:44 ... But noone does it across services 17:43:44 FYI: https://github.com/aaronpk/Micropub/blob/master/user-stories/SWAT0.md 17:43:44 +1 for getting this working!! 17:44:03 ooh I need to review that to see if it's accurate now that it's been implemented 17:44:07 ... This weekend, we got that working with three different people, using three different pieces of software, running on their own sites, working with mobile phones 17:44:16 ... A was ben_thatmustbeme 17:44:24 ... took ap hoto with his phone of B (aaronpk) 17:44:29 ... Posted it to site from his phone with micropub 17:44:35 details with links: http://tantek.com/2015/193/t2/user-flow-permalinks-indieweb-swat0 17:44:39 ... used webmentions to notify aaron's site that he tagged him in a photo 17:44:45 ... aaron got notification on his phone immediately 17:44:55 ... By the way, 3 different locations 17:44:58 ... Portland, Boston, SF 17:45:16 ... kylewm, subscribed to ben, saw the photo and commented 17:45:20 ... comment went to ben and aaron 17:45:29 ... ben and aaron got notifications 17:45:35 ... There's a writeup and a video 17:45:46 ... Appears we got that working 17:45:55 ... This is our one approved user story 17:46:06 ... Which we got working with micropub, webmentions and microformats 17:46:34 eprodrom: Great achievement. Congratulations in order 17:46:41 link to video would be great .... 17:46:46 didn't we approve the unanimously +1'd user stories too? need to check previous minutes to double check 17:46:48 ... Good show of the continued maturing of micropub, webmention and microformats 17:47:00 q? 17:47:13 q+ 17:47:19 ack ben_thatmustbeme 17:47:20 ... Also an interesting challenge to folks working on SoLiD and ActivityPump to show the same kind of activity 17:47:30 ben_thatmustbeme: didn't we approve the +1'd user stories? 17:47:41 tantek: I vaguely remember that, but couldn't find it on the wiki. Can someone find that resolution? 17:47:47 ... We should udpate the approved user stories accordingly 17:48:04 ... Anybody else? 17:48:10 eprodrom: I'll take an action to see if we have that 17:48:15 here's what we have so far: https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg/Social_API/User_stories#Approved_user_stories 17:48:17 ... If we do I'll update the approved user stories 17:48:18 I have 13 listed here ... SoLiD have 5 implementations currently ... 6th in progress : https://github.com/w3c-social/social-ucr 17:48:20 ... I remember it too 17:48:41 tantek: maybe one of us just dropped the ball in updating the wiki 17:49:02 ... The nice thing about SWAT0 is that no one person or implementation can claim to implement SWAT0. You have to have at least two different pieces of software 17:49:20 ... One of the things we learned that there are very different implementation requirements for A vs B vs C 17:49:30 ... Identifying those requirements was part of the challenge 17:49:41 ... Especially for people making their own, it may be easier to play on eof those roles rather than another 17:49:49 ... But then, it maybe be possible to create software that does all three 17:49:56 ... There aren't any I'm aware of currently in indieweb 17:50:03 ... statusnet originally could do all three? 17:50:20 ... That's maybe another bar to achieve. A piece of software that can play all three roles. I don't think we've had any since statusnet 17:50:36 eprodrom: This is good step forward. I appreciate everyone's work on it 17:50:40 ... Anything else to talk about here? 17:50:42 tantek: Any questions? 17:50:43 q? 17:50:46 would love to see the indieweb version of SWAT0 interoperate with one of SoLiD and/or ActivityPump, if that is at all feasible 17:51:04 melvster, are you on the call? 17:51:31 following on irc 17:51:32 eprodrom: I'mnot sure if that is feasible. By the definition of those groupings. 17:51:33 if Solid marks up with mf2 and sends webmentions, sure it is 17:51:47 ... We're not talking about pieces of software as much as groups of software that implement particular protocols 17:51:57 you could certainly upload the photo via a SoLiD api instead of the micropub api 17:52:07 tantek: certainly possible if there's a solid or AP implementation that published microformats or sends webmentions. Would be a cool bridge. 17:52:12 you cna send webmentions externally to the page too 17:52:21 so just needs mf2 in html 17:52:23 ... If anyone is implementing SoLiD or AP based pieces of software, see if you can also publish in your html microformats 17:52:33 ... If you need help with webmention there are a ton of libraries that are simple to use to call that 17:52:41 (I think tantek and me are saying the same thing in parallel) 17:52:49 check out http://indiewebcamp.com/SWAT0#implementation_requirements and see which of A, B or C is easiest to implement 17:52:56 eprodrom: The client API could be solid or AP or micropub, and the server to server is using webmention 17:52:57 exactly evan 17:53:02 tantek: each of the different players is talking whatever with its server 17:53:11 ... the federation depends on webmention and microformats as far as I can tell 17:53:17 also the notification wiring 17:53:18 eprodrom: yes. Interesting to see that happen 17:53:21 that would be cool 17:53:23 ...
