milk
just setting up indieauth on my mediawiki. github auth is saying it can't see rel="me" and github is giving rel="nofollow me". hmm.
#
aaronpk
milk: are you trying to log in using indieauth.com?
#
milk
yup
#
aaronpk
what's your website? most common problem is https/http mixup
#
bret
!tell tantek I Made a pass at the front page in my user space. I think some new pages could help clean up the main page more and consolodate lists of articles for newcomers. http://indiewebcamp.com/User:Bret.io/Main_Page
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell him that when I see him next
#
bret
aaronpk Anyone else can check that out and give feedback as well
#
milk
also, just got an error after fixing my google+ url
#
milk
URI::InvalidURIError at /auth/google_oauth2/callback
#
aaronpk
what is your personal site you're using to sign in as?
#
milk
www.milkmiruku.com
#
aaronpk
without the www I assume?
#
milk
sheet, transfered it and got the alias wrong. och, https css is wonky.
#
aaronpk
ah well #1 your github profile links to https://milkmiruku.com which has an invalid cert. try linking it to just http
#
aaronpk
I got the same URI::InvalidURIError signing in to your wiki as myself
#
aaronpk
I think it's beacuse there's a space in the URL

aaronpk
yeah, I changed the redirect URI to Main_Page and I was able to sign in
#
aaronpk
I'm not really sure why your mediawiki puts the "+" in the returnto parameter. I don't think mine does. Maybe it's a version difference thing?

tantek: bret left you a message 29 minutes ago: I Made a pass at the front page in my user space. I think some new pages could help clean up the main page more and consolodate lists of articles for newcomers. http://indiewebcamp.com/User:Bret.io/Main_Page
#
tantek
thanks bret - there's definitely some good stuff here, and I like some of your intro mods also
#
bret
:) cool just ideas
#
bret
feel a little uneasy making big front page changes still
#
bret
New pages are things that seem to me better distilled into other pages
#
bret
Primarily I focused on the how section
#
tantek
bret - indeed there's a lot we need to move off the home page
#
tantek
I don't really understand the "Guides" section nor how that got there
#
tantek
anyone remember who wrote that and what their thinking was? aaronpk?
#
aaronpk
looks like it's pulling from the [[how]] category
#
aaronpk
which probably means I put it there a long time ago
#
bret.io
edited /User:Bret.io/Main_Page (-19) "Changed getting started to the main HOW article"
(view diff)
smus joined the channel
#
tantek
I'm not sure that automatically pulling from a category is a good way to give folks a how-to list
#
tantek
I think that kind of thing has to be carefully curated, including ordering.
#
tantek
plus we've also learned a lot since the days those pages were created and turned into "how" page
#
tantek
pages
#
aaronpk
I think I put it there when there was very little content in the wiki
#
tantek
yeah that sounds right
#
tantek
At this point I've been working the "how" angle from two ends:
#
tantek
1. Getting Start - literally how to start from nothing and start making progress quickly, incrementally.
#
bret.io
edited /news (+9) "Stubbed the news links page"
(view diff)
#
tantek
2. IndieMark - working backwards from measurable features of each site, each IndieMark level and axis provides links to features which have "how to" sections
#
tantek
in fact I think "how to" works better in the context of a feature page, than on a separate page
#
bret.io
edited /news (+1) "Fixed spacing."
(view diff)
#
bret
tantek, we also started a http://indiewebcamp.com/style-guide when I asked a question about it the other day
#
tantek
Key part of giving people a list of "how to" items: making sure everything on that list actually gives them something they can, see, use, etc.
#
tantek
bret, re: style-guide, I've been mixing up "indieweb" and "indie web" and "Indie Web"
#
aaronpk
I try to be consistent about it, that was my attempt at describing how I think I use them
#
tantek
I'm actually just using them liberally and seeing what organically gets adopted more in the wild
#
tantek
even differently on the same page
#
bret
In context of most things, it doesnt seem like a big deal, but for front page stuff it seemed worth while to try to be consistent
#
tantek
maybe that's sloppy but I'm not worried too much. if someone feel strongly about one of the variants, feel free to make a case for it
#
bret
sounds fine to me :)
#
tantek
go forth :)
#
aaronpk
tantek: did you see what's on the style guide page?
#
tantek
I did
#
bret
Hrmm.. that news page with links. Should I just redirect that to Posts_about_the_IndieWeb?
#
bret
The one I made today
#
aaronpk
maybe add the links you collected to the posts page?
#
aaronpk
I like the list
#
bret
I am thinking about expanding the one in Posts_about_the_IndieWeb
#
bret
or should I separate them?

I'm going to start tracking issues with p3k on github.com even though there isn't source code there https://github.com/aaronpk/p3k

that way anybody can file an issue if they notice something is broken
#
aaronpk
and it will track things a little better than the giant wiki page
#
barnabywalters
that’s another use case for POSSEing to github issues

barnabywalters - last I heard from Aral, the 30 person limit is pretty tight
#
barnabywalters
ah, that’s a pity
#
tantek
we'll just have to see if there are any no-shows
#
tantek
perhaps we should pre-print badges?
#
barnabywalters
briansuda mentioned that he’s only going to be in on sunday, so there’s potentially a space on saturday
#
tantek
he should put that on his RSVP :P
#
tantek
(as well as a photo - he had on a previous RSVP)
#
barnabywalters
yeah, i think he added it via a phone
#
tantek
oh wow!
#
tantek
neuro` ok I guess I can understand that. however how is he an apprentice of you when you are not even coming?
#
tantek
neuro` and Nicolas Bermond cannot be an apprentice of an apprentice so we need to figure that out.
#
barnabywalters
well xtof can log in, so he’s a creator — then Nicolas can be his apprentice
#

yeah I'm going to bump xtof to creator
