not sure what was trending but there was quite a lot of activity on #Spill - in Oz our opposition party is having a meltdown and are spilling the leadership in 30 mins time

Phil: That was really interesting. Surprised that that shooting never gained traction on Twitter. Did it ever trend? Seems like it was all about Mr. Woods the past few days.... and shopping

How many different edge protocols are there? Twitter, Skype, XMPP, etc. I would prefer one based on HTTP
- Thomas Beutel
OMB
- Jesse Stay
There's also an XMPP HTTP transport.. looking for the reference
- Matt Mastracci
Or is OMB an edge protocol?
- Jesse Stay
I believe Twitter uses HTTP polling from the client and rate limits it to 150 requests per minute
- Thomas Beutel
Can someone there please tell them they need to fix the IP issue (edit - I see Matt has already mentioned it)
- Nick Lothian
My 2 questions still are 1) How do we make it easy to run inside a firewall and 2) Can servers really scale, especially when I would suspect the potential for "spanning clients"
- Bill Grant
XMPP BOSH: http://xmpp.org/extensi...
- Matt Mastracci
Nick, yeah, it came up early in the meeting (on the audio)
- Matt Mastracci
that should have been "spamming clients"
- Bill Grant
Although noone brought up the specific "datacenter" issue... @glenc also mentioned it was an issue for Yahoo!
- Matt Mastracci
There's also a lack of subscriber verification that needs to be brought up.. all you need to do is get someone to say 200 OK to this protocol and they'll get spammed for 25 hours.
- Matt Mastracci
ouch
- Bill Grant
I must be old fashioned but as a client I prefer asking information and getting it, rather than for the potential of servers all over looking for me
- Bill Grant
WP rssCloud had an issue in 0.2 where you could specify a path of "@otherserver.com/path" and it would subscribe that other server. (fixed in 0.3)

Someone ask about integrating activitystrea.ms into rssCloud
- Jesse Stay
Jesse - your short domain got redacted too ;)

- Matt Mastracci
*raising hand*
- Matt Mastracci
Matt, the activitystrea.ms?
- Jesse Stay
Ustream needs to fix that, or we're just not going to post over there
- Jesse Stay
PSHB doesn't have the last mile problem to the same extent as rssCloud, because you can choose IP _AND_ Port to subscribe, which will work better for NAT traversal.
- Nick Lothian
Robert, that's Joseph Scott from Salt Lake City - tell him hi for me
- Jesse Stay
I was trying to post this over on ustream: http://pubsubhubbub-xmpp.appspot.com/ -- that's my last-mile support for pubsubhubbub
- Matt Mastracci
what is Facebook using for their updates? or are clients like Seesmic just polling?
- Thomas Beutel
Jesse - I've had it work before. But even a basic search online isn't allowing links through. Normally moderators/admins have permissions under that widget by the send button in Ustream. They changed the defaults about a month ago - and nothing shows under the settings.
- Courtney Engle
Courtney, yeah, it's a pain in the neck - I've had the same problems with shows I've administered
- Jesse Stay
I'd like to hear more about naming (.tel?). I was also thinking about reverse lookups, i.e. resolve the feed from the identifier and vice-versa (for the benefit of the cloud and feeds it produces for indexers etc)?
- Andy Chantrill
Dave is mistaken. There's this in Atom: <link rel="hub" href="http://myhub.example.com/endpoin..." />
- Matt Mastracci
If that doesn't work, use this: <link rel="rsscloud" href="http://myhub.example.com/endpoin..." />
- Matt Mastracci
discovery for atom is very easy ... - I see Matt M. just posted the info
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
Why are they discussing a new namespace? It's already supported.
- Matt Mastracci
Maybe not now, but I'd really love to see some discussion on activitystrea.ms - if you want Facebook or MySpace that's the way to get them in
- Jesse Stay
See http://pubsubhubbub.googlecode.com/svn... for how PSHB does it. They just need to choose a different "rel" value.
- Nick Lothian
Jesse.. I think that would work as-is with rssCloud and PSHB, no?
- Matt Mastracci
@Jessy - activitystrea.ms or whatever will just work - it'll come though in the feed. There isn't really anything to discuss.
- Nick Lothian
[n/m... i was wrong, it should work as-is]
- Matt Mastracci
activitystrea.ms will work only if rsscloud has a way of learning what the payload body format is
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
I noticed Feedburner hid the places they ping a few months before PSHB came through. Wondered why that was put threw a few pings into my WP sites manually
- Courtney Engle
Matt, the rel for both PSHB and rssCloud should be registred with the iana http://www.iana.org/assignm...
- directeur
I think the discussion here is almost just as interesting (and possibly more) than what's going on in the room. I wish we had more of them participating.
- Jesse Stay
Yeah, it kinds of sucks that there's a wall between the two. Something to keep in mind for future meetings
- Matt Mastracci
BTW, Robert, Joseph Scott (the guy from SLC) is the guy that wrote the rssCloud Wordpress plugin. He works for Automattic.
- Jesse Stay
@bear - why do you say that? A rssCloud consumer just gets the whole feed. Obviously it needs to know what to do with it, but that's the case anyway.
- Nick Lothian
And aside, seriously PSHB > rssCloud for many reasons. I don't see a reason to create two "standards". I'd LOVE to understand why Wordpress opted for rssCloud.
- directeur
isn't activitystrea.ms format a different namespace than rss and/or atom?
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
Good luck with Bluehost - I know people that work there and their service is horrible!
- Jesse Stay
Matt - a wide angle webcam would be spiffy for future meetings - or TalkShoe/BlogTalkRadio to just use audio only works well.
- Courtney Engle
nick - wait - so an rsscloud update is the whole feed?!? not just a single payload item of the latest history?
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
Nick, I don't think so, it just gets a notification, not the feed
- directeur
bear: rssCloud subscribers get a simple ping (POST url=blah) and are expected to scrape the whole feed themselves.
- Matt Mastracci
Matt - thanks for setting up ustream, good to listen in to this discussion...
- Bill Grant
rssCloud is a ping, and the client goes out and retrieves the whole feed I believe.
- Jesse Stay
That's the difference between PSHB
- Jesse Stay
It gets a notification, but then needs to go & retrieves the whole feed to do anything useful
- Nick Lothian
ah - so all this talk of distribution is just about spreading the word of the ping?
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
I'd love to hear more to come on buddypress coming along.
- Courtney Engle
doesn't PSHB do that? i thought it pinged the hubs and then the hubs ask for more info
- Bill Grant
bear, correct. PSHB actually optimizes distribution. rssCloud optimizes simple notification for standard full-fetch readers.
- Matt Mastracci
And that DOES count IMHO
- directeur
Bill, I believe the latest entry is included in the ping, so a retrieval by the client isn't necessary in PSHB
- Jesse Stay
@Bill, no PSHB distributes single posts as a payload.
- Nick Lothian
so this could be solved the way usenet handled it - flood-fill of the notification to "known" proxies
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
@Nick ahhh ok thanks for clarifying
- Bill Grant
@Nick when PSHB does that, that is from the publisher to the hub? or all the way to a single client?
- Bill Grant
I just asked Matt why he went with RSSCloud. He said "it seems like a good thing to do." he also said they will do PubSubHubub too.
- Robert Scoble
from iPhone
Robert, thanks for asking that.
- Matt Mastracci
That makes sense - I would do both too if I were them. Let the aggregators decide.
- Jesse Stay
Bingo, competition is always a good thing.
- Jeremy Felt
It's a shame that the IP address endpoint question wasn't answered. That makes it a non-starter for Google, Yahoo and anyone else with a distributed datacenter.
- Matt Mastracci
I'd love to also see more support towards OMB - I really like that protocol
- Jesse Stay
When's the next meetup?
- Thomas Beutel
IP:port needs to be done via SRV records
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
@Bill Grant - it's only from the hub to the client. It retrieves the feed from the original server in the same way as rssCloud (ie, gets a ping, and then grabs the feed). However, you can chain PSHB Hub servers together, so only one needs to respond to the ping (not sure if rssCloud supports that or not?)
- Nick Lothian
just had a rush of ideas - man I need a day job that just lets me code on social web stuff.
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
Blogged my notes post-meeting here: http://grack.com/blog...
- Matt Mastracci
@matt - your blog post is almost the same as I was thinking. xmpp pubsub back-end with a PubSubHB and/or rssCloud front-end
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
bear, yeah. I implemented a gateway from Pubsubhubbub to XMPP this morning (last night?) as a proof of concept here: http://pubsubhubbub-xmpp.appspot.com/ It's unlikely you'd get that working in rssCloud because of the subscription API limitations, thought.
- Matt Mastracci
@bear SRV records for subscription endpoints? So if I'm plaggypig.tel, I could just set up a bunch of records for all the aggregators/services that I want to use, rather than the cloud assuming it should be the source of my request?
- Andy Chantrill
andy - I was mentioning SRV as the way to broadcast the XRDS or other list of endpoints on your service. This gives a way for people behind firewalls to advertise internal services. But I could also be completely not grok'ing how rsscloud info flows.
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
@bear Why use XRD documents when DNS is right there? $ dig rss.andy.tel NAPTR; I thought you meant using SRV records as well to define my subscription endpoints (I could have several).
- Andy Chantrill
andy - then it sounds like i'm making an assumption that isn't matching reality - I still haven't done a test implementation yet of rsscloud so apologies if i'm clouding the issue
- bear (aka Mike Taylor)
bear - rssCloud and Pubsubhubbub are both based on opt-in (via HTTP POST) notifications that happen via HTTP POST whenever content is updated or changed. The publisher notifies the hub via HTTP whenever content changes, and the hub then notifies the subscribers.
- Matt Mastracci
For those who haven't seen it already, anybody who has read this far in the thread would probably be interested in http://friendfeed.com/feedtech :-)

- Scott Lockhart

- Sandra Large
Anything planned for the UK ?
- Matthew Ogston
Just realized that the IP restriction thing means rssCloud can't work with virtual hosting (ie, anywhere more than one domain is hosted on a server). Found that out when trying to implement it. Yay.
- Nick Lothian
Great now I have many more questions than answers. Thanks for the conversation on the details of the distribution systems gents.

Obama's response was exactly what the situation called for. Just sufficient to show how pathetic Wilson's outburst was, but not breaking his own mode of control. Of course Wilson will no doubt be on the short list for 2012 now! (And that would be just fine, I say!)

An offshoot of the eponymous Web service, Regator (agg-regator, get it?) differs from traditional RSS feed readers in that it doesn't rely on you to choose the blogs you want to follow. Instead, the app employs "qualified human editors" to bring you "topical, well-written, frequently updated, and relevant" posts. In other words, the cream of the blogosphere crop, at least according to these guys. You can browse the posts any number of ways, starting with "popular" items from the Web at large or looking within a couple dozen specific topics (from Academics to "What the?"). Regator also provides a full directory of more than 500 topics, so you can really drill into the areas that interest you most. (Beekeeping? Check. Museums? Check.)
