  170. [10:05:44] <McNulty> I think that Tantek's comment on mf-discuss about ratings being a tagging issue is quite interesting
  171. [10:05:55] <McNulty> certainly for the page scope it solves it entirely, in my eyes

  176. [10:07:06] <drewinthehead> na, only being daft
  177. [10:07:34] <drewinthehead> the thing about ratings is they need to be understood
  178. [10:07:49] <McNulty> they are, I guess
  179. [10:07:55] <McNulty> Make up a central authority
  180. [10:07:59] <tantek> the URL is sufficient to provide undersstanding
  181. [10:07:59] <McNulty> Use rel-tag
  182. [10:08:07] <drewinthehead> my worry with tags-only is that it's very difficult for something like a content filter to utilise arbitrary tags
  183. [10:08:13] <tantek> pick whichever authority you wish to reference
  184. [10:08:13] * Kura (n=Kura@adsl.kurafire.net) Quit ()
  185. [10:08:26] <McNulty> all the semantics we were discussing can be captured, as long as we're only talking about page scope
  186. [10:08:27] <drewinthehead> (i think Faruk just ran for cover ;) )
  187. [10:08:53] <McNulty> drewinthehead - I think what you were talking about was more like tagging elements on the page with ratings, right?
  188. [10:09:00] <McNulty> Does rel-tag have any scoping mechanism?
  189. [10:09:19] <drewinthehead> rel-tag works for blog posts
  190. [10:09:21] <McNulty> It seems to be a much broader question than a ratings thing
  191. [10:09:36] <drewinthehead> the element-granularity may be a made up problem
  192. [10:09:43] <drewinthehead> and we don't want to try to solve those
  193. [10:09:48] <McNulty> tantek - didn't mean to start talking about you as if you weren't here, sorry :-)
  194. [10:10:38] <McNulty> drewinthehead - for a site like DeviantArt (I think Phae mentioned them) then they might want to tag a thumbnail in a gallery as pornographic
  195. [10:11:19] <tantek> McNulty, not a problem, it is normal sleeping hours here in PDT so your assumption was reasonable.
  196. [10:11:29] <drewinthehead> i think generally the community is happy that ratings is a solved problem through the use of rel-tag. unless i can present a real-world problem where rel-tag falls down and that is sufficiently common, my reservations about using rel-tag for this are purely theoretical, and thus pointless harping on about :)
  197. [10:12:22] <McNulty> I think rel-tag is a good solution, I also think it'd be useful to scope rel-tag.
  198. [10:12:24] <tantek> drew, the key is that any particular community/service/site that wants to use ratings can use rel-tag and then specify a particular ratingspace/tagspace taxonomy to use with those rel-tags
  199. [10:12:42] <drewinthehead> sure
  200. [10:12:52] <tantek> McNulty, xFolk lets you apply rel-tags to any URL resource
  201. [10:12:57] <McNulty> tantek- I was arguing that ratings had to be tied to a URL yesterday, and completely missed that that was exactly how rel-tag works
  202. [10:13:10] <tantek> ah, yes. exactly.
  203. [10:13:30] <McNulty> Ah, I'm reading the wrong page, the rel-tag page says it "indicates that the destination of that hyperlink is an author-designated "tag" (or keyword/subject) of the current page"
  204. [10:13:30] <tantek> that aspect of the rel-tag design (the use of a tagspace) was very deliberate
  205. [10:13:38] * McNulty goes to read about xFolk
  206. [10:13:53] <tantek> McNulty, ... or portion thereof, such as a blog post.
  207. [10:13:56] * drewinthehead has xFolk parsing 99% working in hKit :)
  208. [10:14:05] <tantek> drew, nice!
  209. [10:14:13] <drewinthehead> (low hanging fruit)
  210. [10:14:14] <McNulty> maybe the rel-tag page needs updating then
  211. [10:15:20] <McNulty> so... a rel-tag inside an xfolkentity is implicitly scoped to that container?
  212. [10:18:55] <McNulty> my question is, if my parser knows about rel-tag, and doesn't know about xFolk I presume it'll scope the tag to the page?
  213. [10:18:56] <davecardwell> tantek: what do you think about my comments on using rel-tag for skills in hResume?
  214. [10:19:00] <davecardwell> (http://microformats.org/wiki/hresume-feedback)
  215. [10:19:07] <davecardwell> I never heard anything back about that
  216. [10:19:29] <davecardwell> it's the second one down, starting "I and others on the #microformats IRC channel"
  217. [10:19:31] <tantek> McNulty, yes.
  218. [10:19:35] <tantek> which is accurate
  219. [10:19:40] <tantek> because there is *something* on that page with that tag
  220. [10:19:46] <tantek> thus it is relevant to the page as well
  221. [10:20:11] <McNulty> right. So rel-tag is scoped to the page, unless it's inside a container that is part of a microformat that uses rel-tag.
  222. [10:20:23] <McNulty> I'll edit the wiki once I think of a better way of phrasing that
  223. [10:21:39] <tantek> McNulty, not quite
  224. [10:21:55] <tantek> even in the spec it is scoped to containers like blog posts
  225. [10:22:23] <tantek> and since the spec is pretty stable, I'd suggest posting any suggested changes to the email list first for discussion
  226. [10:22:35] <McNulty> I've mis-read the spec, in that case.
  227. [10:23:48] <McNulty> I'll post to the list before vandalising the wiki
  228. [10:26:53] <drewinthehead> for 'container' do we just take prompts from the document structure?
  229. [10:26:58] <tantek> davecardwell, many have asked for linkless tags. in practice the semantics of such are greatly reduced so they are undesirable.
  230. [10:27:09] <tantek> it is one of the big differences between "keywords" and tags
  231. [10:27:19] <tantek> if you take away the link, they are no longer really tags
  232. [10:27:23] <tantek> by modern conventions
  233. [10:27:35] <tantek> tags in the systems that popularized tags are *all* link based
  234. [10:27:36] <McNulty> the META keywords already solve the issue of linkless tags
  235. [10:27:43] <tantek> e.g. del.icio.us, Flickr etc.
  236. [10:27:57] <tantek> McNulty, sort of and not really
  237. [10:28:05] <tantek> meta keywords does specify a format yes
  238. [10:28:10] <tantek> but *only* for the whole page
  239. [10:28:16] <tantek> they cannot be scoped to portions of the page
  240. [10:28:23] <tantek> and they are invisible thus subject to corruption/rot
  241. [10:28:34] <tantek> much more so than visible markup/content
  242. [10:28:46] <tantek> a more apt comparison might be to "category" in hCard
  243. [10:29:00] <drewinthehead> invisible meta data kills bunnies
  244. [10:29:47] <tantek> davecardwell, regarding the "richer was of marking up qualifications", no such need has been determined yet from the examples
  245. [10:30:21] <tantek> if you think that such needs actually fall into the 80/20, then you will need to find real world examples on the web that make use of them and document them on the resume-examples wiki page to start with.
  246. [10:32:41] <davecardwell> ok, thanks for your thoughts
  247. [10:33:05] <davecardwell> the fact that tags without links are undesirable doesn't solve my problems with specifying skills with hresume though
  248. [10:33:22] <davecardwell> it still generates a bunch of links you may not want, to locations that may not be intuative
  249. [10:34:06] <davecardwell> this is just something I had a personal problem with for my resume - should I post to mf-discuss to see if I'm in the 80% or the 20%?
  250. [10:35:04] <davecardwell> I understand why rel-tag itself necessitates a link
  251. [10:35:08] <davecardwell> but not skills in a resume
  252. [10:35:15] <davecardwell> perhaps rel-tag is not the correct way to represent skills?
  253. [10:38:37] * amanuel (n=amanuel@d150-142-140.home.cgocable.net) Quit (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
  254. [10:39:10] <tantek> a skill is essentially a subset of a self-tag
  255. [10:39:18] <tantek> you are tagging yourself with that skill
  256. [10:39:32] <tantek> the semantic applies fully
  257. [10:39:36] * McNulty wouldn't know what to link to.
  258. [10:40:42] <McNulty> If I'm publishing my CV on my personal site, I have to find a job skills aggregator?
  259. [10:40:53] <McNulty> Or do I just link to Wikipedia or something
  260. [10:41:22] * amanuel (n=amanuel@d150-142-140.home.cgocable.net) has joined #microformats
  261. [10:41:26] <davecardwell> I want to mark-up my familiarity with the Image::Magick Perl module as a skill
  262. [10:41:33] <davecardwell> where do I link to for a valid rel-tag?
  263. [10:41:50] <McNulty> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imagemagick ?
  264. [10:41:57] <davecardwell> the most sensible place would be the CPAN page for that module, or a page on imagemagick.org
  265. [10:42:13] <davecardwell> but I'm forced to link to wikipedia?
  266. [10:42:21] <McNulty> well, CPAN works for me
  267. [10:42:47] <McNulty> It means the PHB reading your CV can find out what the skills are, I guess
  268. [10:43:09] <davecardwell> but what about the *people* reading my cv?
  269. [10:43:20] <McNulty> That's what I mean
  270. [10:43:21] <davecardwell> what about when I want to link to HTML::Template?
  271. [10:43:27] <davecardwell> where is the page for that?
  272. [10:43:30] <McNulty> They can find out what ImageMagick is, if they're not familiar for it
  273. [10:44:18] <davecardwell> but the intuative page is the perl page
  274. [10:44:22] <davecardwell> CPAN, rather
  275. [10:44:27] <McNulty> ok, link there then
  276. [10:44:32] <davecardwell> rel-tag is forcing me to do something intuiative
  277. [10:44:35] <davecardwell> but then the rel-tag is invalid
  278. [10:44:40] <drewinthehead> strictly speaking, i don't think the page has to exist
  279. [10:44:54] <davecardwell> but then the person is being sent somewhere that doesn't exist
  280. [10:45:06] <McNulty> davecardwell - why is the rel-tag invalid?
  281. [10:45:08] <davecardwell> the machine-readable and human-readable sides of the microformat aren't meeting
  282. [10:45:27] <davecardwell> doesn't the rel-tag url have to end with the tag you're trying to describe?
  283. [10:45:32] <McNulty> aaah
  284. [10:45:38] <McNulty> http://search.cpan.org/dist/HTML-Template/
  285. [10:45:41] <McNulty> ?
  286. [10:45:59] <davecardwell> is that valid?
  287. [10:46:17] <McNulty> valid in what sense? There's a page there
  288. [10:46:20] <davecardwell> ah, it is
  289. [10:46:28] <davecardwell> I meant with the trailing slash
  290. [10:46:28] <davecardwell> neat
  291. [10:46:34] <McNulty> davecardwell.com/skills/html-template if you prefer
  292. [10:46:50] <McNulty> I believe all URLS have an implicit trailing slash
  293. [10:47:00] <davecardwell> no, I don't think so
  294. [10:47:23] <davecardwell> /foo and /foo/ can be seperate
  295. [10:47:28] <drewinthehead> it'd be nice if one of the big search engines had urls as nice as technorati
  296. [10:47:31] <drewinthehead> http://technorati.com/search/anything-you-like
  297. [10:47:46] <McNulty> same as /
  298. [10:47:51] <McNulty> isn't it?
  299. [10:48:15] <davecardwell> not sure
  300. [10:48:29] * McNulty is wrong
  301. [10:48:40] <davecardwell> I'm still not convinced forcing people to link to some aribtrary site like wikipedia if they won't to describe a skill is best though
  302. [10:48:51] <davecardwell> I'd still want to link to http://perl.apache.org/ for mod_perl rather than wikipedia
  303. [10:49:37] <tantek> davecardwell, i'm sure the pages will evolve as necessary
  304. [10:49:42] <tantek> isn't there a perl wiki?
  305. [10:49:43] <McNulty> I suppose it is an issue that the site you want to link to may not have an appropriate url scheme
  306. [10:49:56] <tantek> or rather an apache wiki?
  307. [10:49:58] <tantek> which could have a page for mod_perl ?
  308. [10:50:04] <davecardwell> I don't know
  309. [10:50:10] <tantek> which then itself could link to perl.apache.org etc.?
  310. [10:50:13] <davecardwell> but perl.apache.org is where i want to link :p
  311. [10:50:14] <tantek> in practice this is a non-problem
  312. [10:50:17] <davecardwell> ok
  313. [10:50:36] <tantek> there is a subtle good point there though
  314. [10:50:48] <tantek> which is worth capturing on rel-tag-feedback if you want to write it up
  315. [10:50:56] <davecardwell> wiki.apache.org doesn't seem to have a mod_perl page
  316. [10:50:58] <tantek> which is that the "last segment of a url" is limited to the path
  317. [10:51:10] <tantek> (then create one!)
  318. [10:51:19] <tantek> you could suggest in feedback
  319. [10:51:23] <davecardwell> I'm not sure if it's an apache project or not
  320. [10:51:25] <tantek> that if there is no path
  321. [10:51:34] <davecardwell> and it's creating work for people who just want to mark up their resume
  322. [10:51:50] <tantek> then the machine and domain name should be considered for tags
  323. [10:51:55] <tantek> for the tagword that is
  324. [10:51:58] <davecardwell> if I want to mark up my resume, why should i have to go trawling for links and creating pages about something I may have a *skill* in, but don't consider myself an authority on?
  325. [10:52:08] <tantek> which would allow linking to http://perl.apache.org/ for the "perl" tag
  326. [10:52:17] <tantek> or apache.org for the "apache" tag
  327. [10:52:26] <davecardwell> what if I knows me some perl, but not apache?
  328. [10:52:38] <tantek> reread what I wrote carefully
  329. [10:52:50] <davecardwell> and perl.apache.org isn't about perl or apache, it's about mod_perl
  330. [10:52:59] <davecardwell> hmm
  331. [10:53:02] <tantek> if you treat the portions of the machine name as segments, and you follow the last segment semantic it all works
  332. [10:53:25] <tantek> ah ok, so in that example then perl.apache.org doesn't work
  333. [10:53:35] <tantek> if you want to reference mod_perl, you need a url with mod_perl at the end
  334. [10:53:50] <davecardwell> but perl.apache.org is the most sensible place to link to
  335. [10:53:56] <davecardwell> for human consumers of my resume
  336. [10:53:58] * cori[s]|zZz is now known as cori[s]
  337. [10:54:05] <davecardwell> and also probably for search engines
  338. [10:54:15] <tantek> hmm this seems to work though: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/mod_perl
  339. [10:54:31] <davecardwell> I want to imply a relationship between my CV and perl.apache.org
  340. [10:54:53] <davecardwell> I suppose, but I don't want to have to link to wikipedia :p
  341. [10:55:12] <davecardwell> perl.apache.org is the most sensible place for me
  342. [10:55:21] <McNulty> tantek - the machine name optimisation will have problems with sites that follow the 'www' convention
  343. [10:55:22] <drewinthehead> http://tools.microformatic.com/search/google/anything+you+like
  344. [10:55:23] <davecardwell> that is just for me though, not sure if I'm in the 20%
  345. [10:55:36] <davecardwell> McNulty: it's only the last part
  346. [10:55:46] <davecardwell> if it was something like www.perl.org, it would take the "perl" part
  347. [10:55:51] <davecardwell> that being the last segment of the url
  348. [10:55:55] <McNulty> oh
  349. [10:56:10] <McNulty> Surely the heirarchy of the first bit of a URL goes right-to-left
  350. [10:56:10] <davecardwell> drewinthehead: that's still taking me away from perl.apache.org
  351. [10:56:28] <tantek> no then "www" is the "last segment"
  352. [10:56:33] <davecardwell> ah
  353. [10:56:35] <davecardwell> hrm
  354. [10:56:35] <tantek> you would need to specify just "perl.org"
  355. [10:56:40] <McNulty> yeah taht's what I'm saying
  356. [10:56:46] * tantek references http://no-www.org
  357. [10:57:02] <McNulty> you'd have to specify 'execpt for sites with www machine names'
  358. [10:57:28] <davecardwell> I guess my point is that I consider perl.apache.org to be *the* resource for mod_perl, that would be the most sensible and professional place to link to
  359. [10:57:53] <davecardwell> but I'm forced to find some other site that happens to conform to some aritrary url scheme
  360. [10:58:02] <davecardwell> be that wikipedia or something else
  361. [10:58:19] <tantek> its not arbitrary
  362. [10:58:25] <davecardwell> sorry, wrong word
  363. [10:58:26] <tantek> it is a well established convention for tag URLs
  364. [10:58:55] <McNulty> davecardwell - you need to look at what the tag URL is meant to be
  365. [10:58:57] <tantek> and rather that create a new convention, or worse, create a meta-convention for creating conventions, we chose the dominant convention for tag URLs
  366. [10:59:01] <tantek> per the re-use principles
  367. [10:59:04] <davecardwell> then if I want to make a distinction between mod_perl1 and mod_perl2 which are very different, I have to go looking again
  368. [10:59:04] <McNulty> It's is meant to be a URL to a tagging authority's page about that tag
  369. [10:59:19] <Whiskey_M> those people have too much time on their hands
  370. [10:59:23] <McNulty> That may not fit with what you want the user experience to be in hResume though.
  371. [10:59:28] <tantek> yes, on the web, the only way to distinguish terms is through URLs
  372. [11:01:35] * Phae (n=phae@85-210-23-226.dsl.pipex.com) has joined #microformats

  376. [11:08:11] <McNulty> davecardwell - I think in your case you might want to hide the tags.
  377. [11:09:09] <McNulty> The issue of rel-tag linking to a tagging authority like flickr.com/tags/cake works well
  378. [11:09:24] <McNulty> The idea of skills being a tag works well
  379. [11:09:57] <McNulty> however, the way a CV is normally presented you wouldn't expect skills to be a link, but I think that's a sort of holdover from CVs being traditionally paper documents
  380. [11:10:46] <McNulty> You can always link to programmingskills.com/mod_perl as well as somewhere more appropriate, just only use one as a rel-tag

  383. [11:11:50] <davecardwell> feh, seems like a bit of a fudge
  384. [11:12:13] <McNulty> you can always display:none the tags

  387. [11:12:38] <trovster> Certainly sounds like fudge.
  388. [11:12:38] <McNulty> Repeat the link text somewhere else with a link to the page you want to link to
  389. [11:12:38] <davecardwell> but I don't feel i should have to
  390. [11:12:47] <trovster> davecardwell: That's no good if the parse is dom aware.
  391. [11:13:22] <McNulty> yeah some browser extensions etc. do stuff by looking at the DOM
  392. [11:13:32] <davecardwell> ah
  393. [11:14:15] <trovster> I've got some rel="tag" that I remove with JS as I'm changing the url from /section/tag to /section#tag, and rel="tag" doesn't take fragments as tags

  395. [11:15:28] <trovster> No, when it's setup
  396. [11:15:45] <McNulty> hm
  397. [11:15:46] <trovster> onload, on the JS
  398. [11:16:10] <McNulty> I had assumed most extensions would look at the DOM rather than the page xrc
  399. [11:16:17] <McNulty> s/xrc/src
  400. [11:20:23] <drewinthehead> display:none? won't somebody think of the kittens?
  401. [11:21:39] <McNulty> davecardwell - if you don't want people clicking on it, style it so it doesn't look like a link and have an onclick that returns false
  402. [11:25:13] <trovster> uF looks OK on here - http://www.multipack.co.uk/competition.html ?

  406. [11:26:42] <davecardwell> McNulty: I know that's an option, but I don't feel i should have to :P
  407. [11:27:07] <McNulty> davecardwell - in an ideal world what would the markup be, for you?
  408. [11:27:52] <davecardwell> a reverse of the rel-tag i suppose, where the text is the tag
  409. [11:28:12] <davecardwell> <a href="http://perl.apache.org/" class="skill">mod_perl</a>
  410. [11:28:36] <McNulty> right, not a tag at all?
  411. [11:28:46] <davecardwell> then where I don't want a link, I could just do <span class="skill">mod_perl</span> instead
  412. [11:29:44] <McNulty> you're losing the idea of 'whose concept of mod_perl are we talking abot?'
  413. [11:30:24] <McNulty> the advantage of the rel-tag is you're saying 'this item in this authorities' list of tags'
  414. [11:32:00] <drewinthehead> (aside) do we capitalise microformats in formal writing?
  415. [11:32:05] <davecardwell> for it just to be on <a> then
  416. [11:32:12] <davecardwell> s/for/force/
  417. [11:32:22] <drewinthehead> I enhanced this site with Microformats. (for example)
  418. [11:32:24] <davecardwell> perl.apache.org will be the authority, for mod_perl
  419. [11:33:02] <davecardwell> I enhanced this site with <a href="http://www.microformats.org/" class="skill">Microformats</a>.
  420. [11:33:26] <davecardwell> though I guess that www.microformats.org would work as a rel-tag with tantek's idea of the domain being part of the path
  421. [11:33:40] <davecardwell> well, sans the www.
  422. [11:33:42] <drewinthehead> no-www!
  423. [11:33:43] <drewinthehead> :)
  424. [11:33:54] <drewinthehead> but upper-case M?

  443. [12:15:08] <drewinthehead> getting weird behaviour on those notes for some reason http://tools.microformatic.com/query/plain/hkit/http://www.multipack.co.uk/competition.html
  444. [12:20:23] <trovster> That is wierd. I've broken your parser again ;)
  445. [12:21:04] <trovster> <span class="nickname">trovster</span> should be valid ;)
  446. [12:21:46] <trovster> Hmm, not in class="n"
  447. [12:24:49] <trovster> <dd class="tel"><span class="type">work cell</span><span class="value">######</span></dd> -- would this be correct?
  448. [12:27:04] <drewinthehead> just trying to determine if you should have each type wrapped in a type
  449. [12:27:34] <drewinthehead> i'm thinking yes
  450. [12:28:20] <drewinthehead> <span class="type">work</span> <span class="type">cell</span> <span class="value">#######</span>
  451. [12:28:46] <trovster> meh :)
  452. [12:28:50] <drewinthehead> because 'work cell' isn't a valid type. 'work' is and 'cell' is
  453. [12:29:00] <trovster> We're doing a competition, any more uF I should add?
  454. [12:29:13] <drewinthehead> hCompetition
  455. [12:29:20] <trovster> :d
  456. [12:29:59] <drewinthehead> i bet there's something you could use hReview for ... *everything* can be an hReview if you try hard enough ;)
  457. [12:31:12] <drewinthehead> what sort of competition is it?
  458. [12:31:31] <trovster> Well, to style this HTML :)
  459. [12:32:34] <drewinthehead> it'd be more interesting to ask people to create a visual representation of the HTML
  460. [12:32:45] <drewinthehead> then leave it up to them to decide what that means
  461. [12:33:14] <trovster> Que?
  462. [12:34:08] <drewinthehead> well, with all that microformatted data, there may be more interesting things to do than just apply some css
  463. [12:34:21] <trovster> Aha, well, we're allowing JS, too
  464. [12:34:49] <trovster> So, you're suggesting, you need to use the HTML, but could create a calendar app with it?

  468. [12:37:23] <drewinthehead> cool
  469. [12:37:27] <drewinthehead> sounds like fun
  470. [12:37:37] <drewinthehead> anyone remember the 5k competition?
  471. [12:37:52] <trovster> aye, I kinda do.
  472. [12:38:12] <drewinthehead> it'd be great to do something like that again
  473. [12:38:41] <drewinthehead> those sort of mad constraints encourage creativity

  877. [18:17:19] <bewest> tantek: your suggestion regarding page validation is in the same vain of many others I've seen
  878. [18:17:37] <bewest> almost a hardline dismissal of anything that doesn't validate
  879. [18:17:40] <kingryan> like this http://diveintomark.org/archives/2003/05/05/why_we_wont_help_you ?
  880. [18:18:04] <kingryan> http://microformats.org/blog/2006/07/28/steve-martin-has-an-hcard/
  881. [18:18:05] <bewest> but there are many reasons a page might not validate and it's not as easy as you make it out to be
  882. [18:18:20] <kingryan> what would these reasonable exceptions be, bewest?
  883. [18:18:33] <bewest> when coding a new website, it's relatively easy to make sure things validate (with the exceptions of minor things like ampersands in uri's)
  884. [18:18:37] <kingryan> btw, I admit my blog currently doesn't validate (fuck wordpress)
  885. [18:18:53] <bewest> but probably most websites are legacy code that has been handed off by several people
  886. [18:18:57] <dglazkov> kingryan: sorry, I won't help you
  887. [18:19:02] <dglazkov> :)
  888. [18:19:24] <bewest> Alexa's website is a mess in terms of validation... the reason is that there are probably millions of lines of code in disparate locations
  889. [18:19:30] <bewest> different templates or no templates
  890. [18:19:32] <bewest> et cet...
  891. [18:19:45] <bewest> coupled with the fact that things mostly work even if the page doesn't validate
  892. [18:20:10] <tantek> ah but it's the time you waste on the things that don't work that make it worth the time to validate in the first place
  893. [18:20:32] <bewest> in the first place
  894. [18:20:35] <bewest> but this is inherited

  955. [19:37:15] <Enric> Hi Tantek :)...OK, I'll see if Kevin responds or email him otherwise
  956. [19:37:24] <KevinMarks> hi
  957. [19:37:32] <Enric> The implementations I've seen are proprietory...usually in Flash.
  958. [19:37:42] * bear is now known as bear42
  959. [19:37:44] <KevinMarks> SMIL has a way to do this
  960. [19:37:53] <KevinMarks> the problem is that doing it consistently is hard
  961. [19:37:56] <tantek> Enric, the key is, does anyone actually publish this information currently *visibly* in content on the web?
  962. [19:38:36] <Enric> I don't know of any...I can look some more.
  963. [19:38:37] <KevinMarks> there is a difference between the 'chapter-list/running order' stuff that peopel do publish (see a lot fo podcasts)
  964. [19:38:49] <KevinMarks> and trying to do a frame-accurate edit

  970. [19:40:38] <Enric> but I should look some more.
  971. [19:42:59] <Enric> test: <div>
  972. [19:43:33] <Enric> ok the one I found is from http://www.mobvcasting.com/wp/?p=244 and a sample of it's implemenation is
  973. [19:43:42] <Enric> <div class="non_live_comment" style="cursor:pointer;" onClick="navigate(0);">
  974. [19:43:52] <Enric> Jonny, Jonny Jonny!<br>

  976. [19:44:08] <Enric> </div>
  977. [19:44:12] <Enric> </div>
  978. [19:45:46] <Enric> so the timecode jump or chapter is specified by <span class="timecode">...</span>
  979. [19:47:04] <Enric> I have an alternative implemenation that I want to do using the shape and coords atttribuetes of the a anchor tag.
  980. [19:47:26] <Enric> examples: <a href="http://www.myserver.com/mymove.mov" shape="rect" coords="160,31,182,13" ...>
  981. [19:47:34] <Enric> So coords is coords="<seconds start>,<milliseconds start>,<seconds end>,<milliseconds end>"
  982. [19:47:46] <Enric> rect is for 4 coords entries which works well for setting the seconds, miliseconds start and end.
  983. [19:48:25] <Enric> Any thoughts or should I put this up on a page for responses?

  989. [19:55:31] <KevinMarks> I think using a spatial mapping is a bit abusive
  990. [19:57:01] <Enric> The thing is I don't think the timecode should be visible information...it's for the code to implement, not necessarily for the user to see.
  991. [19:57:20] <KevinMarks> well, that depends on how you are going to implement it
  992. [19:57:38] <Enric> the coords attribute allows for the time location to be used but not visible.
  993. [19:57:40] <KevinMarks> the chapter list exampels put it there in h:m:s form
  994. [19:57:50] <KevinMarks> so people cna drag the slider in their player to it
  995. [19:58:17] <Enric> I see..good point.
  996. [19:58:18] <KevinMarks> if the player supports explicit chaptering (as QuickTime does) you can translate this
  997. [19:59:32] <KevinMarks> and the coords attribute in <a> does nto apply to the href of the a
  998. [19:59:49] <KevinMarks> it applies to a co-ordinate space within the container
  999. [20:00:04] <Enric> Yes, I know...but it can be implemented by the javascript call I have in my utility, vPIP.
  1000. [20:00:16] <Enric> But, I understand it's not logical.
  1001. [20:00:41] <KevinMarks> You may eb better off using the ABBR pattern we sue elsewhere for datetimes
  1002. [20:01:11] <KevinMarks> have a human readble [h]:m:s, and a machine readable frame-accurate offset in the abbr
  1003. [20:01:18] <KevinMarks> milliseconds aren't frame accurate
  1004. [20:01:32] <Enric> The implementation I'm looking for is time start at end because it will be coupled with tagging sections of video. So would <span class="timecodestart">00:00:15</span><span class="timecodeend">00:01:32;12</span> make sense?
  1005. [20:01:34] <KevinMarks> and you need to be careful about dropframe timecode and so on
  1006. [20:02:07] <Enric> Good idea on ABBR, I'll look at that :)

  1010. [20:02:56] <KevinMarks> the ; distingusishes in the NTSC drop, non-drop case
  1011. [20:03:02] <Enric> yes then video is usually 30 or 15 fps
  1012. [20:03:16] <KevinMarks> no, thats an American-centric view
  1013. [20:03:25] <KevinMarks> Europe it's 25
  1014. [20:03:36] <Enric> ; usually distinguishes frames for hh:mm:ss
  1015. [20:03:39] <KevinMarks> if it's fil-derived or in some of the HD it can eb 24
  1016. [20:03:46] <Enric> so hh:mm:ss;fr

  1024. [20:05:15] <Enric> I think I should put a page up on this for comments once I incorporte some of this... I'll let you know where it is when it's ready.
  1025. [20:06:39] <KevinMarks> great
  1026. [20:06:42] <jibot> Rinoa is the ultimate evil
  1027. [20:07:03] <KevinMarks> I think chapters are somethign worth codifying
  1028. [20:07:50] <Enric> (the easiest thing is to implement seconds/milliseconds which is the calls in most video such as flash, quicktime and wmv. But I can see that for the user timecode makes more sense, but harder to implement.)
  1029. [20:09:10] <Enric> yes, I do to...actually what I want to implement is tagging within video so it's tag=timecodestart to timecode end
  1030. [20:09:32] <Enric> or actually tags...not just one.
  1031. [20:09:49] <KevinMarks> hm
  1032. [20:10:08] <KevinMarks> tags and chapters could share an underlying timeref idea
  1033. [20:10:21] <KevinMarks> chapters are normally end to end, so you only specifiy starts
  1034. [20:10:42] <Enric> good point, I'll need to look at how chapters work more.
  1035. [20:11:24] <Enric> I see tags need start to end since they can overlap and will be aggregated as sepearte pieces from multiple locations.
  1036. [20:11:31] <KevinMarks> right
  1037. [20:12:06] <Enric> ok, I'll let you know.

  1063. [21:29:28] <tantek> two years
  1064. [21:29:51] <bewest> interesting that the editors notes are marked up using <table>

  1066. [21:30:04] <bewest> you never know... could be the 70th day
  1067. [21:30:21] <tantek> no bewest

  1080. [21:34:05] <tantek> When I realized that was when I realized I needed lots more grains of salt.
  1081. [21:34:46] <KevinMarks> well, if you boil the ocean, you get a lot of salt left over

  1085. [21:37:16] <bewest> huh?
  1086. [21:39:43] <KevinMarks> "boiling the ocean" is our shorthand for 'doing far more work than is needed, to the point of taking on something that can never be completed'
  1087. [21:40:21] <bewest> what about needing salt?
  1088. [21:40:37] <kingryan> salt makes it boil faster, no?
  1089. [21:40:38] <bewest> and how can you get leftovers from something that can't be completed?
  1090. [21:40:50] <bewest> salt raises the boiling temperature of water
  1091. [21:41:03] <kingryan> I thought it lowered the temperature
  1092. [21:41:04] <kingryan> ?
  1093. [21:41:09] <bewest> so no, it takes more heat/longer to boil salt water
  1094. [21:41:14] <bewest> which is why we throw salt on icy roads
  1095. [21:41:21] <bewest> erm
  1096. [21:41:40] <bewest> raises the freezing point
  1097. [21:41:50] <bewest> I suppose it raises the boiling point
  1098. [21:42:06] <KevinMarks> surely lowers the freezing point
  1099. [21:42:35] <bewest> erm
  1100. [21:42:37] <bewest> lowers the freezing point
  1101. [21:42:44] <bewest> it pushes both points away from eachother :-)
  1102. [21:42:48] <kingryan> and lowers the boiling point?
  1103. [21:42:55] <bewest> no
  1104. [21:43:03] <bewest> it takes more heat to boil
  1105. [21:43:12] <bewest> raises boiling point and lowers freezing point
  1106. [21:43:29] <KevinMarks> http://epeus.blogspot.com/2004_12_01_epeus_archive.html#110253460528868806
  1107. [21:44:41] <bewest> http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/bio99/bio99359.htm
  1108. [21:45:43] <kingryan> wikipedia disagrees: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiled_pasta
  1109. [21:45:48] <kingryan> its says that salt has no effect
  1110. [21:45:54] <bewest> so the government is wrong?
  1111. [21:46:10] <kingryan> likewise here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling-point_elevation
  1112. [21:46:38] <kingryan> of course, WP disagrees with itself: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling
  1113. [21:46:47] <kingryan> there is says salt raises the boiling point
  1114. [21:47:26] <bewest> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling-point_elevation
  1115. [21:47:29] <KevinMarks> well, it does, but not measurably
  1116. [21:47:29] <bewest> it does
  1117. [21:47:41] <bewest> the quantity involved when cooking is statistically equivalent to nothing
  1118. [21:48:08] <bewest> specifically any solution generally has an elevated boiling point that the original solvent
  1119. [21:48:22] <bewest> so putting just about anything in water will make it take longer to boil
  1120. [21:48:32] <KevinMarks> salt can act as a nucletion source to avoid superheating
  1121. [21:48:54] <bewest> which is why when you throw your pasta in the boiling water, it stops boiling for a few moments
  1122. [21:48:55] <KevinMarks> remember 'anti-bumping granules' ?
  1123. [21:48:58] <bewest> no
  1124. [21:49:20] <bewest> but I haven't taken any science since high school or so
  1125. [21:49:34] <bewest> and no physics, then
  1126. [21:51:03] <bewest> the "boiling the ocean" bit is nifty though
