[uf-discuss] Open microblogging and microformats

[Sarven Capadisli]

Hi all,

A small promotion for open microblogging and microformats here: If you
haven't come across http://identi.ca I'd like the take this
opportunity to mention a few things that this community might be
interested in.

Identica uses the http://laconi.ca microblogging software, available
under the GNU Affero General Public Licence. You can help improve the
code. Our development repository is hosted on gitorious:
http://gitorious.org/projects/laconica . See also
http://identi.ca/doc/faq

Currently, laconica supports the following:
* hCard
* XFN
* hAtom
* bunch of rels (tag, license, group, member, prev, next, in-reply-to, home...)

e.g., http://identi.ca/csarven

There are semweb groups you might be interested in joining:
http://identi.ca/group/microformats
http://identi.ca/group/semweb
http://identi.ca/group/rdfa
http://identi.ca/group/foaf

If you'd like to chime in with your comments or suggestions, there are
a lot of ears. You can reach the laconica community by:
* IRC ( irc://irc.freenode.net/%23laconica )
* Mailing list ( http://mail.laconi.ca/mailman/listinfo/laconica-dev )
* Groups ( http://identi.ca/group/laconica or others like !identica )

Looking forward to the awesome tools you guys are going to come up with.
