dbounds what's your personal site that's using ooava? (I'm updating the projects page so we can look at active real-world personal example uses of each project)
#
tantek
and aaronpk - next time you see Brennan Novak, could you ask him what's his personal site that's using Social Igniter?
#
dbounds
tantek, ooava evolved into glow. http://dbounds.glow.io/profile (it's in an incomplete state atm)
#
tantek
is glow a project or a site?
#
tantek
and thanks for the URL
#
dbounds
it's a project. dbounds.glow.io is a self contained instance of glow.
#
dbounds
ooava was a site
#
tantek
and I totally respect and understand it being in an "incomplete state atm" :)
#
tantek
so ooava was an experimental or test deployment of glow?
#
tantek
is there a project page for glow?
#
tantek
(wiki, github, etc.)
#
dbounds
the closest thing to a project page right now is the blog. http://blog.glow.io
#
dbounds
ooava was a personal project that had no intention of being distributed or available to anyone else. glow was designed for anyone to use.
#
tantek
do glow instances have to be at glow.io, or have you considered running one at your own personal domain (rather as a subdomain of the project domain of glowio) ?
#
dbounds
the idea was to start off by restricting it to a glow.io host and then once stable opening it up to any host/domain.
#
dbounds
limiting it to glow.io (allowing me to control DNS) gave me more control over who and what was part of the beta group.
#
tantek
ah clever

Has anyone ever tried to build a modern federated network that leveraged IRC (RFC 1459 and related) as the communication architecture? Been pondering the good and bad of something like that recently.

dbounds: IRC is my social network :)
#
aaronpk
but really, yes I have pondered that as well. It seems between IRC and email that there are some pretty good models for federation systems.
