Look at how @mikedev designed `events` in @streams!

[grunfink@comam.es]

#snac doesn't support this Event activity type yet, but it doesn't seem too hard to add some support for it (it's the first time I find one in the wild, to be honest).

@liaizon @grunfink @mikedev @streams @nodebb @julian Mitra transforms Event objects into posts, that works reasonably well. I'm not against extended support but I'd like to wait until some standard in this area emerges. As far as I know, existing event servers use slightly different protocols.

@blog was working on better interop

Event Federation – We are working on a proper federation of events managed on a WordPress site. With support from @[email protected] Code

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] if it's not a Note, Article, Page, or Question, NodeBB will drop it... But we can easily add basic support (like Mitra) if it contains Note-like properties.

We'll also wait for standardization.

[grunfink@comam.es]

I've just added some very basic support for this type (basically, not dropping them and showing them as if they were regular posts, with a mark to note that they are events). I understand that what make this type interesting is adding the possibility to add actions like intention to attend and such, but I will also wait for standardization.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

@grunfink @mikedev @streams @julian @nodebb @silverpill @mitra wow that was amazingly fast. Do you have this merged on your instance already? Can I take a peak at it live somewhere?

[grunfink@comam.es]

If you want to test it, it's already in the repository. If you just want to take a look at what it's shown, it's here:

Is this the same as mobilizon or soapbox events?

@grunfink awesome to see! thank you for your efforts here. The fediverse gets more exciting with every commit

[mikedev@fediversity.site]

It's unfortunate that there are so many variations, because unlike things like groups and quote-posts, this is one thing the spec actually did a reasonably good job of covering.

And most projects just ignored it and went their own way.

[tedu@honk.tedunangst.com]

@liaizon heh, I kept waiting and waiting for someone to post an event activity. Now I finally get to see one.

[liaizon@social.wake.st]

@tedu how's it looking in think land?

[tedu@honk.tedunangst.com]

@liaizon here's one I posted a while back.

#Coffee Throwdown! With #karaoke!
