- [00:01:29] <bkdelong>
So Mike - what brings you here? Or are you always here and I never noticed?
- [00:02:03] <tantek>
yes, welcome mlinksva
- [00:02:36] <mlinksva>
i've decided to hang out on irc more, cause i have nothing better to do, and 'microformats' sounds rad. what kind of music do they play?
- [00:03:49] <mlinksva>
no, really, i am hanging out on irc more, and have been meaning to dig into microformats a bit more, so i'm just lurking here for the time being as a consequence

- [00:05:35] <tantek>
mike, perhaps you can help brainstorm with us on how to apply rel-license to *portions* of a page (like a single blog post) and external resources (like photos).
- [00:06:03] <mlinksva>
yeah, that's one of the things i'm interested in
- [00:06:14] <mlinksva>
rel=license should be an officious atom extension rsn
- [00:06:18] <tantek>
a point raised at last nights media-info / fotonotes brainstorming dinner
- [00:06:19] <mlinksva>
i need to look at hAtom
- [00:06:26] <tantek>
ah interesting
- [00:06:38] <bkdelong>
I wonder if we could include license information in a longdesc
- [00:06:45] <tantek>
perhaps hAtom should include use of rel-license on hentry as well as the top level feed?
- [00:06:59] <mfbot>
[[photo-note-examples]] http://microformats.org/wiki?title=photo-note-examples&diff=0&oldid=4265 * GregElin * (+291) Examples - - added fotonotes
- [00:06:59] <tantek>
bk, longdesc is typically invisible right?
- [00:07:04] <tantek>
i'd rather go with existing practice
- [00:07:20] <tantek>
which is people actually putting visible license hyperlinks on their blog and blog posts
- [00:08:19] * Enric (n=chatzill@c-67-188-10-66.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #microformats
- [00:08:33] <bkdelong>
hyperlinling the img elements you mean?
- [00:08:54] <bkdelong>
Yeah, longdesc is almost never used except for additional information about an image.
- [00:09:07] <tantek>
ah, i see what you mean
- [00:09:15] <tantek>
using longdesc to link to more info about the image
- [00:09:19] <tantek>
which could include the license!
- [00:09:28] <bkdelong>
right
- [00:09:38] <gregelin>
(tuning out for a meeting...)
- [00:09:43] * gregelin (n=gregelin@h-67-103-44-6.snfccasy.covad.net) Quit ()
- [00:10:12] <bkdelong>
So we'd be using the longdesc correctly
- [00:10:52] <tantek>
does <object> have longdesc also?
- [00:11:43] <bkdelong>
I think so.
- [00:11:50] <mlinksva>
fwiw see http://www.snellspace.com/wp/?p=249 (several atom extensions) and http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-snell-atompub-feed-license-04.txt
- [00:12:29] <bkdelong>
blast - no: http://www.w3.org/TR/html40/index/attributes.html
- [00:12:50] <bkdelong>
http://www.w3.org/TR/html40/struct/objects.html#edef-OBJECT
- [00:12:58] <bkdelong>
However we could use the data attribute
- [00:13:09] <tantek>
but data points to the src
- [00:13:17] <bkdelong>
hrm...
- [00:13:31] <bkdelong>
right...duh
- [00:14:15] * hober (n=ted@unaffiliated/hober) Quit ("I'll be right back.")
- [00:16:26] <bkdelong>
What child elements can be used under object?
- [00:19:24] <Enric>
ping
- [00:21:03] <mlinksva>
so if you use longdesc to point to info about an image/object, that just pushes the problem to another url, which has to contain some statements about the image url ... i won't say what that's reinventing. using longdesc specifically for license seems like a terrible narrowing of its intention

- [00:23:54] <bkdelong>
you're right
- [00:24:10] <bkdelong>
I forgot that Longdesc wasn't text

- [00:32:03] * hober (n=ted@unaffiliated/hober) has joined #microformats

hober is Edward O'Connor and works for EVDB on http://eventful.com/ and lives in San Diego, CA (-08:00)
- [00:37:07] <tantek>
but the contents of an <object> are defined to be *fallback* for the object in the case that the browser doesn't support the <object> itself
- [00:37:15] <tantek>
so that semantic is already defined
- [00:37:41] <tantek>
there seems to be a lot of overlap BTW between citations and media-info
- [00:37:53] <tantek>
is media-info just a special citation?
- [00:38:01] * _psychic_ (n=john@c-24-2-78-210.hsd1.ut.comcast.net) Quit ()
- [00:38:11] <tantek>
do we need to solve the cite problem first and then use that as a building block for other microformats?
- [00:38:12] <mlinksva>
very true, it would be stretching to use fallback markup to describe the preferred object

- [00:57:14] <bkdelong>
meeeeee
- [00:57:21] <tantek>
cool
- [00:57:27] <bkdelong>
sorry...overzealous enthusiasm is mah name.
- [00:57:52] <tantek>
do we have sufficient examples and formats research to start brainstorming?
- [00:58:21] <bkdelong>
Not sure. Need to look em over again
- [00:58:51] <factoryjoe>
i'm not!
- [00:59:03] <bkdelong>
heh
- [00:59:21] <tantek>
it seems to me that an hCite could serve as a core building block for numerous other microformats
- [00:59:27] <tantek>
i'm seeing patterns of commonality all around
- [00:59:32] <factoryjoe>
as long as hFigure shows up
- [00:59:44] <bkdelong>
hFigure?
- [00:59:52] <factoryjoe>
ask tantek
- [01:00:07] <tantek>
factoryjoe, could you point to a URL that shows an example of what you would call a "figure"?
- [01:00:13] <factoryjoe>
yes
- [01:00:16] <factoryjoe>
factoryjoe.com/blog
- [01:00:36] <factoryjoe>
any image with something like class="alignleft | aligncenter | alignright"
- [01:00:45] <factoryjoe>
those aren't semantic tags
- [01:00:56] <factoryjoe>
i would like something like class="hfigure alignright"
- [01:01:06] <factoryjoe>
i can find others
- [01:01:08] <tantek>
but what does figure mean?
- [01:01:11] <tantek>
other than "image"
- [01:01:29] <tantek>
or "object"
- [01:02:02] <bkdelong>
damn....where are all the cite examples?

http://microformats.org/wiki/cite-examples
- [01:02:57] <mlinksva>
it might make sense to think of atom entries outside of the context of atom feeds -- the container would be superfluous for things at aren't actually feeds. any atom rel extension could be directly supported. any block you wanted to annotate would need to be wrapped in <div class="hentry">, the block itself being class="content". of course this is a super-generic annotation mechanism, not particularly using any xhtml sema
- [01:02:57] <mlinksva>
ntics.
- [01:03:08] <factoryjoe>
figure means "a representative illustration of this document | post | content"
- [01:03:14] <factoryjoe>
btw, on send_pings: http://www.cadenhead.org/workbench/news/2847/tracking-click-pings-phpmysql
- [01:03:55] <tantek>
so a figure is a rel="alternate" type="image/*" ?
- [01:03:57] <factoryjoe>
mm: http://money.cnn.com/2006/01/19/technology/futureboy/index.htm
- [01:04:08] <factoryjoe>
tantek: sort of...
- [01:04:15] <tantek>
what else is it then?
- [01:04:19] <mlinksva>
i looked at the cite pages on the wiki briefly and didn't really get the overall intent. bibliographic info? apropos to what's in a blockquote?
- [01:04:26] <factoryjoe>
though it could also be those woodcut illustrations in .... the WSJ
- [01:04:37] <tantek>
those are just images
- [01:04:40] <tantek>
that's what i mean
- [01:04:48] <bkdelong>
yeah...they are
- [01:04:50] <tantek>
i don't see the semantic distinction of a figure above and beyond an image/object
- [01:04:53] <tantek>
if it is just a synonym
- [01:04:57] <tantek>
then we don't need any new format
- [01:05:13] <tantek>
mlinksva - visible citations
- [01:05:31] <tantek>
blockquote lets you link to a cite via its cite attribute which is a url
- [01:06:21] <bkdelong>
as does "q" for inline citations
- [01:06:22] <factoryjoe>
what about this: http://marketwatch.nytimes.com/custom/nyt-com/html-industryfocus.asp?ind_abbr=isv&ind_sid=980703
- [01:06:33] <factoryjoe>
(the graph)
- [01:06:44] <bkdelong>
an image
- [01:07:00] <bkdelong>
that can be described in detail through longdesc ;P
- [01:07:14] <factoryjoe>
or maybe: http://money.cnn.com/2006/01/20/technology/google_stock/index.htm
- [01:07:27] <factoryjoe>
the google rollercoaster vs the big technology block..
- [01:07:31] <bkdelong>
Now.....a collection of images to make up a figure....
- [01:07:50] <factoryjoe>
basically you could use an hFigure as a way to leave certain things in a post if you wanted to just see the article + hfigures
- [01:08:02] <factoryjoe>
i.e. it could be used in the content of hAtom descriptions...
- [01:08:08] <factoryjoe>
bkdelong: right, that too
- [01:08:15] <factoryjoe>
or, an image with a caption
- [01:08:20] <factoryjoe>
like tables have captions
- [01:08:42] <factoryjoe>
i mean, my point is really that "alignright" doesn't tell me anything semantic
- [01:08:54] <factoryjoe>
besides where something should be rendered in flowed text
- [01:08:55] <tantek>
my point is HTML already has everything you have mentioned for a figure
- [01:08:56] <bkdelong>
I see what you're saying
- [01:09:02] <factoryjoe>
but it doesn't tell me that it's related to the post
- [01:09:09] <tantek>
the context tells you that
- [01:09:13] <factoryjoe>
hmm
- [01:09:15] <factoryjoe>
no
- [01:09:18] <tantek>
simply be embedding the image in the context of the entry
- [01:09:19] <factoryjoe>
again
- [01:09:22] <tantek>
you are saying it is realted
- [01:09:26] <factoryjoe>
look at that google stock page
- [01:09:28] <tantek>
related even
- [01:09:42] <factoryjoe>
that big "technology" rectangle adds nothing to my understanding of the article
- [01:09:58] <factoryjoe>
so i wanted to, for example, grab that article and move into a scrapbook
- [01:10:06] <factoryjoe>
i would only want to extract the related hFigures
- [01:10:11] <factoryjoe>
not the extra stupid stuff
- [01:10:20] <factoryjoe>
i need a better example
- [01:10:25] <factoryjoe>
lemme keep looking
- [01:11:03] <tantek>
by default all nested images/objects are related content
- [01:11:15] <tantek>
if it is only decorative, it should be presented via CSS
- [01:11:44] <factoryjoe>
??
- [01:11:49] <factoryjoe>
that's so not what happens
- [01:11:56] <factoryjoe>
http://www.slate.com/id/2134461/
- [01:12:05] <factoryjoe>
look at the big honkin ad in the middle of the text
- [01:12:08] <factoryjoe>
that is NOT an hFigure
- [01:12:13] <factoryjoe>
nor is presented via CSS
- [01:12:17] <factoryjoe>
(as far as I can tell)
- [01:12:53] <factoryjoe>
yet if i want to ONLY select the article (including illiustrative images, figures, formulas, etc) that ad will be contained in the selection
- [01:13:13] <factoryjoe>
am i wrong?
- [01:14:02] <factoryjoe>
perfect: http://www.usatoday.com/money/markets/us/2006-01-20-stocks-daily_x.htm
- [01:14:04] <bkdelong>
Basically you're saying you want to add more context to images within an article or blog posting
- [01:14:13] <tantek>
factoryjoe, we can't control what people do wrong
- [01:14:16] <factoryjoe>
scroll down to the green box: "HOW STOCKS PERFORMED"
- [01:14:33] <tantek>
if they are using XHTML wrong, then there is no reason to expect that they would make use of microformats
- [01:14:35] <factoryjoe>
bkdelong: yeah, like make it explicit that certain content is part of a post or article
- [01:14:44] <factoryjoe>
tantek: of course
- [01:14:47] <tantek>
hence there is no reason to invent a microformat for something that just requires proper use of XHTML
- [01:14:49] <factoryjoe>
i'm looking for my own standard
- [01:14:52] <factoryjoe>
for my blog
- [01:15:02] <factoryjoe>
you asked for general examples in the wild why this would be useful
- [01:15:03] <tantek>
my points, just following proper XHTML, you don't need another standard
- [01:15:15] <tantek>
unless there is something i am missing
- [01:15:28] <tantek>
again, how is figure not just a synonym for image - in your blog for example
- [01:15:32] <factoryjoe>
well, i'm not articulating it quite well enough
- [01:15:36] <factoryjoe>
you're mostly right
- [01:15:45] <factoryjoe>
tantek: in that last example
- [01:15:47] <tantek>
you need to explain why figure is *special*
- [01:15:55] <factoryjoe>
you've got text AND images
- [01:15:57] <tantek>
how it implies additional semantics above and beyond just an image
- [01:16:01] <factoryjoe>
together they combine to make a FIGURE
- [01:16:23] <factoryjoe>
and that figure is related to the context of the article in which its founds
- [01:16:26] <factoryjoe>
found
- [01:16:37] <factoryjoe>
ok, like imagine this
- [01:16:44] <factoryjoe>
let's say i have a greasemonkey script
- [01:16:56] <factoryjoe>
"magic erase everything else so i can read just the content" script
- [01:17:04] <factoryjoe>
like adblock on roids
- [01:17:15] <factoryjoe>
it would look for hatom content
- [01:17:26] <factoryjoe>
and hfigures embedded in the hatom content
- [01:17:38] <factoryjoe>
everything else w/o hfigure would get blown away
- [01:17:44] <factoryjoe>
i could then print that, save it, send it... etc
- [01:17:57] <factoryjoe>
if it's just an image, how do i know it's not an ad?
- [01:18:04] <factoryjoe>
hfigure would make it explicit
- [01:18:45] <factoryjoe>
i could be totally wrong in my approach here -- that's known to happen -- but it makes sense to me...
- [01:19:00] <factoryjoe>
maybe not as a Tantek-sanctioned-microformat.. but maybe just as a convention
- [01:19:08] <factoryjoe>
certainly better than "alignfoo"
- [01:19:24] <mlinksva>
tantek, i did not know about the cite attribute of blockquote and q. this seems trivial to use. what would a potential hcite mf add? and how would it be a building block for other mf's -- cite seems very specific -- "URI that designates a source document or message", only applicable to blockquote and q.
- [01:20:46] <factoryjoe>
anyway, i'll let ya stew on that for a bit
- [01:20:47] <factoryjoe>
;)
- [01:21:19] <bkdelong>
wiki it in brainstorm / discussion
- [01:27:14] <tantek>
um, alignfoo is orthogonal AFAIK
- [01:27:38] <tantek>
mlinksva, yes a cite link *is* very specific
- [01:27:49] <tantek>
an hCite would be used to markup and actual citation's components
- [01:27:50] <tantek>
e.g
- [01:30:23] <tantek>
Çelik T. "CSS3 Basic User Interface Module" W3C Technical Reports and Publications <http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/CR-css3-ui-20040511> (2004)
- [01:30:35] <tantek>
currently HTML has the <cite> element
- [01:30:44] <tantek>
so you can markup that whole thing as a <cite>
- [01:30:59] <tantek>
but the question is, could we come up with a microformat to markup the individual pieces
- [01:31:12] <tantek>
author, title, publication, URL, date
- [01:31:21] <tantek>
which are all *part* of the citation
- [01:32:02] <tantek>
factoryjoe, how about marking up the ads as such instead?
- [01:32:23] <tantek>
the "collection of stuff makes a figure" is an interesting line of thinking
- [01:32:40] <tantek>
something like: photo + media-info = figure ?
- [01:32:52] <tantek>
I'm not sure that is compatible with "common" use of the term figure
- [01:33:00] <tantek>
e.g. in a text book the figure is usually *just* the image
- [01:33:16] <tantek>
and it is often labeled as "figure 5.7" or something
- [01:33:22] <tantek>
and then referenced as such
- [01:34:50] * jcgregorio (n=chatzill@adsl-072-148-043-048.sip.rmo.bellsouth.net) has joined #microformats
- [01:34:53] <factoryjoe>
i dunno about that
- [01:35:09] <factoryjoe>
i think figures are often illustration + title + description
- [01:35:19] <factoryjoe>
or in a newspaper: photo + credit + caption
- [01:35:26] <factoryjoe>
it's a group of related items
- [01:35:46] <factoryjoe>
and for marking up the ads.. i think there'd be more stuff you'd want to exclude than include...
- [01:36:48] <factoryjoe>

- [01:36:55] <factoryjoe>

- [01:44:03] <mlinksva>
tantek, ok i understand the desire to markup the contents of <cite>. that doesn't seem to have anything to do with the cite attribute, unless the intention is for a cite attribute to point to a named anchor, which would precede the <cite>. in any case, i don't see the commonality with media-info. hcite would be markup up the contents of an element -- <cite>, the problem with marking up an img, object, or similar is one
- [01:44:03] <mlinksva>
of annotating an external thing, not a block self-annotating itself.

- [01:46:39] <jay>
hello all
- [01:47:49] <tantek>
mlinksva, yes, there is the distinction of annotating an external thing vs. a thing inline

do you think there could be any future in developing a microformat for the higher education sector, i.e. creating a standardised way of tagging course information, such as course titles, descriptions, entry req's etc
- [02:05:34] <tantek>
are such things published on the web in any sort of common pattern?
- [02:06:35] <jay>
well from a UK perspective most of them do

i'm not sure about the US, i guess they might not have all the same variables for each course, i suppose that is part of the challengem getting a "buy in" from institutions
- [02:08:29] <jay>
i'm just thinking that in terms of potential students, if courses are available in common formats, it would open up a multitude of search opportunities
- [02:10:41] <mlinksva>
tantek, could you be explicit about what overlap you see? my guess is 1) you might want to make some of the same annotations about both and 2) in the case of <cite> you're actually annotating an externing thing -- the thing being cited. so the super generic way to handle both would be to say "here's a block that annotates something" and "here's the thing being annotated", e.g., class="annotation-container" on the former
- [02:10:42] <mlinksva>
and rel="annotation-subject" on the <a> to the thing being cited (<http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/CR-css3-ui-20040511> in your example) or class="annotation-subject" on the img/object -- not meant to be anything close to the correct syntax, just illustrative -- but that seems perilously close to reinventing you know what

I'm not yet of the opinion that hCite needs to be anything more than <a rel="cite" href="...">description or name</a>. Other potential data fields such as author initially seem appealing and appear to have examples, but I'm not sure it is possible to treat any data marked up in such a citation as authorative.
- [04:49:41] <BenjaminCarlyle>
If I claim that <http://microformats.org/blog/2005/12/31/new-xoxo-blog/> was written by Tantek Seliac an aggregator could pick up that and treat it as fact, when in fact I have horribly mispelled the author's name. Instead, and aggregator should use the author it finds at the url as authorative.

I have not yet come around to thinking that a citation needs to have anything but a hyperlink and short description (i.e. an anchor). Even if other data can be pulled out of a citation, should it be used? Can it be considered authorative?

Ben, yes, ideally everything would have a canonical representation on the Web at a permanent URL and we could simply reference it as such.
- [21:02:29] <TantekC>
But we are not there yet.
- [21:03:18] <TantekC>
And more importantly, that doesn't represent what people publish today on the Web.
- [21:04:06] <TantekC>
The point of microformats is not to model some future ideal, but rather, to model *today's* *real-world* publishing behavior on the Web.
- [21:06:10] <TantekC>
So the point remains, as documented at http://microformats.org/wiki/cite-examples people publish citations with various amounts of semi-structured content.
