@cypnk whos making an open hardware version!

@heluecht glad to get to meet you! Hope your time at congress was filled with new knowledge and new connections

where is this? @heluecht

Hey #fediverse people at #37C3, @how started a topic for happenings on socialhub here:
https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/activitypub-at-37c3/3783/2

cc'ing @heluecht

@FediVariety hey @heluecht did you see this?

@heluecht got my tickets, any thoughts about organizing a fediverse specific thing?

@heluecht we should make one happen if theres not!

eyyyy I got approved for a #c37c friends ticket! my first congress! see you nerds there!

@heluecht asked them about implementing @forgefed

"The current specs I proposed are meant to allow people on the fediverse to follow activity on Gitlab instances, without write access, as a first step toward the fediverse. For that reason, I prefer to avoid using an extension of ActivityPub : if I do use it, then Mastodon, Lemmy and others now have to implement support for that extension too, or the content we send to them will be useless."

"In implementing an ActivityPub actor, there are three distinct parts we need:

We need to make a list of activities publicly available, similar to what a RSS feed is doing, but using the ActivityStream format.
We need to add a "profile page" endpoint for the actor, providing its name and url to the outbox (list of activities) endpoint
We need to accept external POST requests for subscribing, and then push our own requests to the subscriber when an event happen."

ActivityPub federation of Gitlab underway!

"I have finished preparing my design documents for this feature. See here for the reasoning behind adding ActivityPub to Gitlab and an overview of the implementation path, and here more specifically for this current issue, with more detailed specifications.

I now feel confident enough to get starting implementing this into Gitlab. I'm going to add the activities iteratively, there is quite some distance to cover up." -Kik

if Threads starts supporting nodeinfo they will start showing up in the fediverse instance trackers automatically unless we block it proactively: looking at you the-federation.info and fedidb.org

@heluecht well I still need icons for the following then, sadly many of them don't have a logo at all:
birdsitelive
honk
activityrelay
aoderelay
foundkey
ecko
lotide
snac
cherrypick
mitra
brighteon
pub-relay
write.as
kbin
statusnet
sequel
wxwclub
pelican-activitypub
apd
brutalinks
fedibird

@heluecht are platforms like blogger in there thru following via RSS?

@heluecht do you use the icon font directly? or could we switch to using SVGs? I would love to contribute them to Friendica! I am still going through and making sure all the alignments are right and such but I think this is already the most complete set of fediverse icons there is.

I have spent the last two days working on making good quality SVG versions of the logo/symbols for #fediverse projects and I feel like it was worth it. I think the hard/less fun part of this project is getting them out there for all to use. I am pretty unfamiliar with submitting to Wikimedia Commons that is probably the best place for them to all live
