__NOTOC__
= Microformats IRC =

We have an IRC channel, [irc://irc.freenode.net#microformats #microformats on the freenode network].

There's typically someone there at any point during the day, though there isn't always active discussion. Sometimes, though this is the best place to discuss issues that need lots of back and forth discussion.

To display a brief description of who you are each time you join the channel, you can create a definition for your username. To do so pass the <tt>?def</tt> command using something like the following convention (be brief):

<code>?def jdoe is John Doe and can be found online at <nowiki>http://www.jdoewebsite.com</nowiki></code>

== IRC meetups ==

The idea of having IRC meetups (that is, a set time for meeting on IRC) has been suggested by [[User:RyanKing|Ryan King]], as it appears to work well for the WordPress community and may help us from time-to-time. As of yet, there are no plans to have meetups, though.

Smackman:

I took at look at Basecamp. They embed todo items in a UL, a little bit like XOXO (with a lot of extra schmutz). If you assign something to someone then you get something like this:

<span><strong>Smack Man:</strong> wonder why it looks like this</span>

so what's missing here is an identifier for the person, and their role. We'd imaging something like,

<span class="htodo">
<span class="attendee"><span class="hcard"><span class="nickname">Smack Man</span></span></span>
<span class="summary">wonder why it looks like this</span>
</span>

(the assignment looks a bit verbose.... plus "attendee" is not exactly the right idea, but it's coming from VTODO, we we defer.)

htodo

<h1>hToDo</h1>

''This is just an initial draft''

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICalendar#To-do_.28VTODO.29 VTODO] is part of the [http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2445.txt RFC2445 iCalendar spec] used for describing todo items.

VTODO is fairly straight-forward, as it doesn't contain any nested entities, and has a fairly small list of properties. Most of these it shares with VEVENT, suggesting htodo be modeled on hevent in [[hcalendar]], and the ground assumption is that htodo should work just like hevent with respect to these properties. The shared properties are:

''class, created, description, dtstamp, dtstart, geo, last-mod, location, organizer, priority, recurid, seq, statusm summary, uid, url, duration, attach, attendee, categories, comment, contact, exdate, exrule, rstatus, related, resources, rdate, rrule, x-prop''

The unique properties to VTODO are:

* '''completed''' The date/time the todo was completed
* '''due''' The date/time this todo is due
* '''percent''' Integer from 0-100, completion status

As the data types for '''completed''' and '''due''' are the same as, e.g., '''dtstart''', then the usage should be the same. For example,

<abbr class="due" title="2007-01-01T13:10:05.0Z">January 1, 2007</abbr>

As for percent, the contents of span with class "percent" will do, I think. If there is a "%" in the body, it can be ignored. The numerical part is assumed to be from 0-100. For example,

<span class="percent">50%</span>

and

<span class="percent">50</span> percent

are equivalent.

Here is a full example,

<div class="vtodo">
<span class="summary">Create a spec for hToDo</span>
<span class="status">first draft</span>
Initiated <abbr class="dtstart" title="2006-05-12">May 12, 2006</abbr>
</div>
