MediaGoblin and ActivityPub at TPAC (Or: ActivityPub needs your review!)
2016-10-05T16:35:27Z via Pumpa To: Public CC: Followers
Shiny new blogpost! For all those who have been wondering what we've been up to, and are maybe curious how the standards stuff has been going.
Also, ActivityPub still needs your review!

The ActivityPub standard needs your review!
2016-09-29T11:09:01Z via Pumpa To: Public CC: Followers
A lot has happened in our work on standardizing federation with the W3C Social Working Group. ActivityPub is nearing Candidate Recommendation stage (we are aiming to reach that by October 11th), and in order to get there, we need public feedback! Here's a mailing list post explaining how you can help, though in summary:
- Reply to this thread!
- File issues on the issue tracker
- Email Chris Webber, personally (though know that I'll be putting your comments publicly on the social working group wiki, though you can be anonymous if you like): send to cwebber AT dustycloud DOT org, with "ActivityPub" somewhere in the subject.
- Send to the public-socialweb-comments list
Thank you! Your feedback is greatly appreciated! Here's to an interoperable federated social web!
Please note: The link to the editor's draft has changed. It's now here. Thanks!

OMEMO implements the encryption of Signal, just like WhatsApp does these days. It really beats OTR and PGP.

If OMEMO is that cool, I'll have to look into it. I thought it was just sort of "OTR with less usability surprises".it supports multiple devices!! have you ever tried to use OTR with multiple devices? Also the key management is way easier than PGP

Partially reviewed now =)
I created an issue for small typos and redundancies.
When I get the time, there are other things I'd like to discuss, like a specific note about the responsability of the clients when handling addressing of replies, and a point about how posting to only "Public" makes the object publicly viewable but not sent to anyone.
This comment will serve as a self-reminder =)

This is the first release art on actual physical paper too. Morgan did the colored pencil work (I think she did a great job!)
I didn't have access to a graphics tablet on this trip, so it's a bit raw. But maybe that's fun in its own way?

It might not look like much, but the screenshot above is the first demo of federation in MediaGoblin. This is using the Pump API, with MediaGoblin talking to Pump.IO!
All of Jessica Tallon's hard work is finally paying off! Whooooo!

So how does this work? Does this mean that hypothetically, a Pump user can subscribe to a MediaGoblin user?

How can I check that latest code to test it? Is it in master branch of http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/mediagoblin.git ?
When translating I have found features like "feature", "promote" etc, but I can't find them when running testing instance from this branch.2016-02-06T17:02:36Z via Pumpa To: Public CC: Followers

There is something I'm unclear about (and arguably I haven't read much, or at least enough, to answer this on my own).
ActivityPub seems to be an interactive protocol. Is there some sort of separate document representation format that doesn't need ActivityPub to exist (but that ActivityPub would exist to exchange), or is it all defined together?>> Olivier Mehani:
“[...] Is there some sort of separate document representation format that doesn't need ActivityPub to exist (but that ActivityPub would exist to exchange), or is it all defined together? [...]”
If I understand your question, that'd be ActivityStreams 2.0.

@JanKusanagi has it right. See the ActivityStreams core spec and vocabulary spec.
ActivityPub builds on the shoulders of giants!

@Ben Sturmfels is going to be presenting on MediaGoblin at Linux Conf Australia on the 5th of February, 2016. Ben's talk will be moderately technical on what MediaGoblin is, why it's an important problem to be working on, and will touch a bit on upcoming federation support in MediaGoblin as well.
Ben is an wonderful speaker and a fabulous contributor to MediaGoblin. If you can make it to this talk, we recommend it!

State of the Goblin: Stripe Open Source Retreat, and more!
Includes a lot of news, as well as a year in review. Maybe most excitingly announcing (well, on our blog, we mentioned briefly on here) MediaGoblin's participation in the Stripe Open Source Retreat 2016 and what we intend to get out of that. But lots of other news in there too!
Hope you had a good 2015... see ya in 2016!
