#
Loqi [preview] Yes, you really can run a virtual conference using only open source tools. The Fedora Design Team discovered this first-hand hosting the very first Creative Freedom Summit in January, 2023. Using open source tools for running a virtual conference can...

#
[tantek] aww
#
[tantek] was hoping that would get the slug from the etherpad
#
[tantek] and check to see if the page already existed! https://indieweb.org/events/2023-03-01-hwc-pacific
#
[tantek] capjamesg, two things ^ do you want me to file issues for them?
#
capjamesg Yeah, please.
#
capjamesg #1 is implemented but it isn't working.
#
capjamesg Who listed me as the "special Scottish guest" :D
#
GWG Was not me
#
GWG I referenced you but I didn't write it

tantek.com edited /FAQ (+891) "update a few questions, replace old IRC permalinks, reduce some snark, note hope of growing Matrix and AP-based federated networks caveat monoculture risks" (view diff)
#
[tantek] ^ gRegor could you review those updates, per the concerns you indicated in https://chat.indieweb.org/meta/2023-04-04#t1680651547772200 and following chat statements?
#
Loqi [preview] [gRegor] From main chat, not sure about "political" but some things read snarky on /FAQ "There are no good books on the subject of federated networks because there are no good federated networks."
#
[tantek] ^ for that in particular I've now listed Matrix and Mastodon as signs of hope in newer federated networks. I couldn't think of any others. Suggestions welcome.
#
[tantek] and email & xmpp as effectively failures in federation (for different reasons)

#
gRegor [tantek], I think that first request for the etherpad slug is this issue: https://github.com/capjamesg/indieweb-etherpad-archiver/issues/4
#
Loqi [preview] [gRegorLove] #4 Improve archiving from etherpad URL
#
[tantek] Thanks gRegor. I can file an issue dependent on that one to auto-detect if someone has archived already from the Etherpad and if so provide a warning in response
#
[tantek] also still interested in your review of my FAQ edits. wasn't trying to achieve perfection, but rather improvement in both accuracy and tone
#
gRegor Taking a look

[tantek] FAQ << To do: separate developer-specific FAQs (e.g. involving jargon like federation / decentralization) to their own [[developer-faq]] page.

Loqi ok, I added "To do: separate developer-specific FAQs (e.g. involving jargon like federation / decentralization) to their own [[developer-faq]] page." to a new "See Also" section of /FAQ https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=87398&oldid=87397
