hello all, I have a microformats timezone question I'd like to ask you
- [06:02:44] <boblet>
does anyone know if "timezone" will eventually be implemented?
- [06:03:02] <tantek>
greetings
- [06:03:24] <tantek>
boblet, hcalendar has timezone offsets in datetimes
- [06:03:31] <Atamido>
Today I went to use a chic-fil-a coupon I got for free, while I was driving around today recording GPS coordinates for work. I hadn't been planning on it, but I realized I had a coupon in my car. I went through the drivethrough, and I told them I had a coupon for a free chicken sandwich.
- [06:03:33] <Atamido>
The guy took the coupon and waved me to the next window, where I got my chicken sandwich, which I then proceeded to eat and enjoy. When I got back to the office, I looked down and noticed a Wendy's bag. In my distracted state, I had gone to Wendy's, and used a Chic-fil-a coupon to get a free chicken sandwich.
- [06:04:01] <tantek>
Atamido - that is hilarious
- [06:04:30] <tantek>
boblet, it is unlikely that VTIMEZONE is every going to be implemented as a microformat - it is so incongruous with how people think about and publish information about times

- [06:06:33] <boblet>
I've been reading through the wiki & list archives, and I'm not sure how to represent a 5-full day conference with a timezone offset. according to what I've read it should be like:
- [06:06:34] <Atamido>
I'm really just interested in whether or not I used the class names and nesting correctly.
- [06:06:34] <boblet>
<abbr class="dtstart" title="2006-10-29T00:00:00+09:00">Sunday, October 29th</abbr>
- [06:07:39] <boblet>
but doing this through X2V gives me an .ics that apple's ical treats as a single event (doesn't automatically span 5 days)

- [06:10:43] <boblet>
I haven't checked any other calendar software, but it seems apple's ical wants dates (no times) plus X-WR-TIMEZONE:Japan
- [06:13:00] <boblet>
it's on this page: http://oli-studio.com/tri-univ/2006/index.html
- [06:18:41] <boblet>
hi Atamido. I'm no expert, but for what it's worth here's what i think
- [06:19:41] <boblet>
i think class="fn org" automatically maps to "organization-name", so unless you're planning to add an "organization-unit" later you don't really need "organization-name"
- [06:21:04] <boblet>
it'd be good to turn the h1 into a link with class="fn org url". if you specifically want to have the url on a separate line, I'd replace "homepage" with the actual url text "http://www.heb.com/"
- [06:22:03] <boblet>
I think your tel declaration might be wrong - i think you need to declare a value
- [06:23:15] <boblet>
I'd write <div class="tel"><span class="type" title="work voice">Phone</span>: <span class="value">512-263-0528</span></div>
- [06:23:49] <Atamido>
For our users it has been best to state that a link is a link, so having a seperate line labeled "Homepage" is better for us.
- [06:24:32] <Atamido>
I thought I needed "fn org" to specify that this is an organization and not an individual.
- [06:24:53] <boblet>
yep
- [06:24:59] <Atamido>
I think you're right about the phone though.
- [06:25:03] <Atamido>
Hmmmm...
- [06:25:24] <boblet>
what i meant was if you write class="fn org" you don't need class="organization-name"
- [06:25:39] <boblet>
(although it's not gonna hurt)
- [06:26:28] <Atamido>
Ah.
- [06:26:35] <boblet>
you've got crazy div-itis going on too
- [06:27:11] <Atamido>
Well, I was trying to isolate only data that should go into those fields, while presenting it nicely.
- [06:27:12] <boblet>
you're missing a couple of closing divs (specifically <div class="address"><div>Address:<div> <div class="adr">)
- [06:27:33] <boblet>
i think that you wanted <div>Address:</div>
- [06:27:49] <Atamido>
Ah, right you are.
- [06:28:01] <boblet>
if you're after something to wrap stuff in, i'd say this is a list of contact info, so you could use ul
- [06:28:26] <boblet>
then each kind of contact info can get its own <li>
- [06:28:57] <Atamido>
Well, you want the state and locality to be on the same line.
- [06:29:09] <Atamido>
Or have the LI not appear at all if neither are present.
- [06:29:23] <boblet>
if you have an address that spans multiple lines and you were completely semantically anal, you could mark that up in a paragraph in a li, with brs for linebreaks
- [06:29:27] <Atamido>
Well, really the logic was a lot easier this way. :P
- [06:29:53] <boblet>
actually, since you have "phone" and "address", a table would be even better (table of contact info)
- [06:29:57] <Atamido>
It was late, and I was tired.
- [06:30:12] <boblet>
sorry man - not trying to hassle you

I know, I'm just not that worried about divitis right now.
- [06:30:59] <Atamido>
I would rather it be importable with a click in some future version of FF or IE more than anything else.
- [06:31:20] <boblet>
if you'd like some code to c&p, here's a contact address that I did in a table:
- [06:31:22] <boblet>
http://oli-studio.com/tri-univ/contact.html
- [06:31:39] <Atamido>
Nah, I don't have the space for that.
- [06:31:41] <boblet>
you can check it now in firefox using the tails plugin
- [06:31:57] <Atamido>
I'm stuck in the confines of this crappy fixed-width design.

oh man, i fully woulda jumped on the shink to see that :( you fully slipped under the radar

something wanky with DNS temporarily - then I did a sleep/wake cycle and that seemed to fix it

me neither usually

semantic markup, but that's about as mad as seo-based ;-)

it just kind of annoyed me

because, I mean, here you have a reknowned web standards advocate of meaningful markup and accessibility etc, and suddenly he's not even sure how you should use the h1 tag

mikeal: fire away!
- [23:42:45] <mikeal>
so the only example you have with a VTIMEZONE convertion is marked as @TODO
- [23:42:52] <mikeal>
and I kind of need to know the answer to that
- [23:43:20] <mikeal>
i would be perfectly happy with you simply requiring UTC, but that needs to be explicit
- [23:43:47] <tantek>
mikeal - I think VTIMEZONE will be explicitly dropped from hCalendar
- [23:43:52] <tantek>
as it doesn't model what people actually publish
- [23:44:10] <tantek>
we don't need to require *just* UTC. We allow UTC or a fixed offset in *hCalendar*
- [23:44:11] <mikeal>
huh?
- [23:44:21] <tantek>
VTIMEZONE is a HORRIBLE abstraction/complexity
- [23:44:23] <mikeal>
what is the fixed offset?
- [23:44:35] <tantek>
e.g. +0900
- [23:44:40] <tantek>
(I'm in Tokyo right now :) )
- [23:44:40] <mikeal>
there is no timezone definition period in the example
- [23:45:21] <hober>
mikeal: I see lots of Zs in there
- [23:45:56] <hober>
The point is, if people publish time zone information at all, it's with the dt{start,end}
- [23:46:15] <hober>
You need to put your offset there anyway, so you're good to go!
- [23:47:39] <mikeal>
timezone and daylight issues are more complex than that
- [23:47:47] <mikeal>
i agree that VTIMEZONE isn't the best solution

for instance Z is +2h in Zaire Kasai
- [23:49:52] <mikeal>
but Z is +1 in Zaire Kinshasa Mbandaka
- [23:50:21] <mikeal>
i can't reliably convert that to UTC
- [23:53:57] <KevinMarks>
how can it reliably be used as a calendar then?
- [23:54:46] <KevinMarks>
using +0100 and +0200 is clearer than using a local TZ name that changes on unknown dates
- [23:56:02] <mikeal>
the main issue with A-Z is that there is no differences less than 1 hour
- [23:56:09] <mikeal>
some local timezones do do that
- [23:56:23] <mikeal>
also all A-Z definitions don't account for daylight
- [23:56:40] <mikeal>
so this is all fine when you are reading for a definition and displaying to a local time
- [23:56:59] <mikeal>
but if you are describing an odd local time that you need someone else to be able to localize you need something more complex
- [23:57:23] <mikeal>
you "could" just define the TZID and require that it match a tzid in the olson database

here is the olson db

- [23:59:48] <mikeal>
if you want to keep things simple requiring, someone to describe the offsets is definitely too large
