Who's on, today?
David is calling in from Toronto, Canada
Ward from Portland, Oregon
Paul from Peterborough, UK
What's our agenda?
Conversation in federated wiki, and potential associations with Etherpad
1. What's been published as new?
HTML version
Video
2. Markup or editable?
Which markup? Markdown?
Some interest in Markdown
Should we stop blindly accepting all HTML, and support a subset?
We could have an Etherpad plugin that would add a 'launch' button to an ordinary paragrah.
Use the text to explain the charter for the pad
We could use the item id as the Etherpad name
but we go out of our way to preserve ids, this works agains us here
or we could bury a name in some other field of the item
Supporting web sockets?
On edit-by-edit, rather than key-by-key?
Could we have separate wikis, but then edits appear on my wiki and your wiki
Build at the core, not as a plugin?
But then would all servers support it? Would prefer smaller servers?
5. Merge?
Just merge edits, and play back?
There's no merge function in fed wiki right now
How would be implement that?
Shift click newer to create a ghost page?
6. Diff or scroll?
A diff page?
Have done this as part of a report, e.g. a Monday morning report that sends out e-mail server side
Locked scroll: could work; could have colors
Have scroll as hover over the journal, but could also scroll if hover over elements
Hovering over an element that was just removed wouldn't move
7. Replay the history like a video?
Journal becomes a giant scroll bar
This is all client side
A ghost page that really isn't stored, but viewable
If it takes 5 edits to complete a page, going in and out
Hover over journal, can see all of the edits on the same page
If have a video, could see work in progress over a day or week
FAQ page gets edited every week, because the hangout URL changes
Toggle to appear or disappear?
Certify a page as done? Came up as people who wanted to use fed wiki as a database, not have have misinformation, how to make the wiki trustworthy. Call as done or approved
8. Would be nice if Mike Caulfield joined us. Educational technologist, people using wiki in classrooms
13. Dragging the fed wiki flag into the Etherpad doesn't do anything
14. Michael Mehaffy is interested in putting in control loops
Method plugin? Refresh logic doesn't support this, yet
Have reduce plugin that concentrates page updates, reads computations off multiple pages: a spike, simpler
Reduce plugin as a slider: can you force numbers
15. In hangouts, haven't used a fed wiki, just notes after the fact
Have audio, not persistent
Etherpad, persistent, but can be confused
Federated wiki as a place where documents go, after they've been started in Etherpad
Google video used more as audio chat, end up looking at persona icons
16. Ward coding on weekend will work on control loops
Ruby version has fallen into disrepair, OpenID login
May go to Open Source Grid, get Ruby people interested
Simple local login?
17. Express 4 came out last month -- node version
Nick's work, was going to rewrite, but saw it's a lot of work
Could use some aggressive refactoring
Mongo skin, even if not using, pull out in to module
Security, also pull out into module
18. Security, an open issue
Paul will be working on server side, not client side or plugins (I think)
19. David won't be on call next, presenting in Las Vegas at systems engineering (INCOSE meeting)
Ward will host the call every week, 60% of the call is social anyway
David will give a trip report in two week
