@david@post.aldebaran.uberspace.de And i thought that was just a thing on the german wikipedia.

@dracoblue@dracoblue.net I’m not sure if i’m ready to document the streaming interface, i’m still playing with different ideas.

@kas@enotty.dk, @dracoblue@dracoblue.net You’re right we should really use robots.txt for twtxt registries. Maybe i even add this as a option to #txtnix.

@dracoblue@dracoblue.net Sorry, but what tweet are you referring to? I have no idea what sounds great… We need a way to reference tweets!

Anybody has http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7033 running for twtxt? And what to use for rel? https://twtxt.org/twtfile?

@krt@krt.marmaro.de I actually like it when tweets are short, but insisting on 140 characters and cutting the tweet is a little bit too strict.

@kas@enotty.dk It’s a cool game, i played it when it was featured on hn, but lost interest once i could venture outside.

This would be a good use case for metadata. @kas@enotty.dk could ask clients to refetch less, eg with /refetch 10m

@krt@krt.marmaro.de Twice an hour would be really slow for a lively discussion. But i agree, 10 seconds is too often.

And as luck would have it, #roster provides a websocket stream on ws://roster.twtxt.org/stream. Have fun!

@kas@enotty.dk Good reminder, i really should add a url in my user-agent-string for roster.twtxt.org. Although it only fetches feeds every 600s.

@krt@krt.marmaro.de You can use more than 140 characters. It seems twtxt does not limit the number of characters to 140. Neither does txtnix. Twet?

Thanks @krt@krt.marmaro.de. Packaging is such a thankless but important job.

@krt@krt.marmaro.de What are you working on?

@quite@lublin.se Very cool!

@kas@enotty.dk,@ Are your twtfiles requested too often? Do you think we need a policy how often to request a twtfile?

http://roster.twtxt.org got a nicer layout, buttons and collapsed mentions tonight! #roster

It’s running since last night, supports the twtxt registry api and crawls the feed for new urls. #roster

@dracoblue@dracoblue.net Does your offer for subdomains on twtxt.org still stand? Could you point roster.twtxt.org to 46.101.199.168?

@kas@enotty.dk We had a short power fluctuation yesterday. Funny to see which machines die and which survive.

@dracoblue@dracoblue.net But apache eg can just use mtime,inode or size for the etag. No default way to compute md5 without a filter.

@dracoblue@dracoblue.net The problem is that my ini parser does not remove quotes around values and twtxt’s does. Another parser? Another format? sigh

The sun made it across the pacific! @david@post.aldebaran.uberspace.de @kas@enotty.dk

@kas@enotty.dk, @david@post.aldebaran.uberspace.de As long as I can still upload my hand edited twtfile on any webserver and someone can follow me, twtxt hasn’t lost its way. :)

@kas@enotty.dk Great Idea! I wouldn’t worry about the file size. Content-Encoding gzip should get you a very good compression rate.

@kdave@kdave.github.io I don’t see anything at all. So either my font has an empty glyph for that codepoint or i’m stripping it. Will investigate.

@kas@enotty.dk What are you recommending? I usually prefer Terminus.

@kas@enotty.dk The moon or do you have another favourite glyph? And please with codepoint, my font doesn’t handle all the fancy stuff you throw at it.

@kas@enotty.dk The only thing stopping me from implementing webmentions by myself is RFC 5988. Crazy stuff…

@dracoblue@dracoblue.net It all comes back to #48 … :)

I could just fall back to twtxt’s config if i can’t find a config directory for txtnix…

@kdave@kdave.github.io The last commit will check for the environment variable TXTNIX_CONFIG_DIR but this won’t help if i move following to a state file.

@kdave@kdave.github.io I have no strong opinion about different configs fot #txtnix and #twtxt, but @david@post.aldebaran.uberspace.de had compatibiliy issues with quoting.

@kdave@kdave.github.io Ah, okay, i misunderstood you there… :) Would you be okay with following moving to the state file?

@kdave@kdave.github.io I had a race condition btw 2 txtnix processes. The obvious solution is to flock, but then config edit will flock for too long.

@larry@lhyn.es Damn, twitch is also already used … we’re too late! Maybe we should concentrate on the txt part and just call them texts.

#txtnix now uses it’s own configuration file ~/.config/txtnix/config after @david@post.aldebaran.uberspace.de discovered some incompatibilities.

@dracoblue@dracoblue.net #txtnix does now expand /me to @mdom@mdom.github.io. I’m not sold on the syntax though, my brain is trying to find the referenced mention.

@reednj@reednj.com Is twtxt-dir removing exclamation marks after mentions?

Hello, @raur@raur.nfshost.com! Can i ask how you found #twtxt?

// follow raur http://raur.nfshost.com/twtxt.txt

@kas@enotty.dk You mean, you want to link a url in one of your twets and then send a webmention?

@kas@enotty.dk is on fire. Great links, thanks! MovieSwap seems just crazy enough to succeed.

@mdom@mdom.github.io needs to move to copenhagen. I lived in Reformert Kirke for few weeks and loved Copenhagen!

@krt@krt.marmaro.de Hi there, welcome to #twtxt! We sure get a lot of comparisons with #finger…

// follow krt http://krt.marmaro.de/twtxt.txt

@kas@enotty.dk So the first hex string is the private key and the second a public key of a recipient?

@quite@lublin.se Heh, I like twet twet! #twet

@kas@enotty.dk That’s what i’m using. But shouldn’t i be able to generate keys to communicate with other users? How could i encrypt a message for you?

@kas@enotty.dk, @kdave@kdave.github.io I don’t get it. How do i generate keys for #saltpack? Do i need #keybase to use it?
