Ciberch: /* Project Members */

== summary ==
The goal is to create a client library which can be used to list all the attendees for an event across multiple sites which use hCalendar microformats and link rel="me"

=== Example ===
Our example is using the dev camp event and pulling the attendees from http://microformats.org/wiki/events/2009-07-25-dev-camp and upcoming

=== Components ===
*Microformats hCalendar Parser
*Dedupper which takes care of not showing an attendant more than once. We are using the social graph api to make sure we have accounted for all the identities of a given person.
*Client Library

=== Project Members ===
#Dustin Whittle
#Aramys Miranda
#Matthew Levine
#Reid Burke
#Monica Keller

=== Code ===

*Dedupper - http://nexpace.com/sandbox/microformats/includes/expand-hcards.php?uris=ben-ward.co.uk,matthewlevine.com,http://upcoming.yahoo.com/user/83829/&format=debug takes 2 parameters:
**uris: comma delimited list of uris
**format: json, php, [debug: this will output the social graph data as well as the uniques. Normal. output will be available in the $uniques variable if the file is included or outputted as json or php.string if the file is called externally. Only the uniques will be returned.]
*Yahoo Upcoming Microformats Parser - http://wiki.github.com/reid/upcoming-attendees
*UI for attendants - http://www.montrics.com/Events/Attendants.htm

activity-streams

<h1>activity streams</h1>
{{TOC-right}}
== introduction ==
As people use various different web sites to [[blogging-tools|blog]], update their [[picoformats|status]], post their [[geo|location]], or [[photo-info|photos]], sites and tools have emerged to aggregate these various actions into a continuous eclectic stream of activities.

Such activities typically involve a '''subject''' (the person doing the activity), a '''verb''' (what the "doing" is of the activity), and often a '''direct object''' (what the activity is being done to or with). Activity stream aggregators typically republish activities in reverse chronological order, independent of type of activity.

[http://friendfeed.com Friendfeed] is perhaps the most well known web site that does cross site activity aggregation/publication, and [[movable-type|Movable Type]] has built-in support for aggregation/publication of activity streams as of v4.1.

For more examples, see the [http://diso-project.org/wiki/activity-streams DiSo wiki activity streams page] (see also [http://wiki.diso-project.org/ the other DiSo wiki], not sure [http://twitter.com/t/status/972796117 which to use]).

== problem statement ==
The type and variety of activities that services support and publish is growing every month. Services like Friendfeed and tools like Movable Type must either be continuously updated with one-off per service implementation support, or provide nothing more than lowest common denominator feed aggregation and publication.

If activity streams were published in an open standard format then activity stream aggregators that supported such an open format would automatically support any new standards supporting activity stream services without having to play the continuous one-off proprietary API implementation catch-up game. In addition, new activity publishers would be less beholden to trying to reimplement others' proprietary APIs (and all the giving up control to a likely competitor problems that arise from that practice).

== existing standards ==
Feeds (and related formats, RSS, [[Atom]], [[hAtom]]) solve most of the problems of activity streams. [[movable-type|Movable Type]] 4.1's activity stream publishing support already supports [[hAtom]] today for example.

The '''subject''' of an activity is nearly always the author of a feed.

The '''direct object''' of an activity is typically an item or entry in a feed.

== apparent need and focus ==
Thus the only remaining piece that seems to be missing to standardize is the '''verb''' aspect of an activity.

Per the [[microformats]] [[principles]], by focusing on this smaller part of the problem (verbs), we may be able to more quickly solve the larger problem of representing activities and activity streams.

Thus, per the microformats [[process]]:

* [[activity-verb-examples]]
* [[activity-verb-formats]]
* [[activity-verb-brainstorming]]
