w3.org cert expired?

SMH
04:05
<sideshowbarker>
yeah, a bit embarrassing
04:06
<sideshowbarker>
“mistakes were made”
04:07
<sideshowbarker>
probably somebody thought somebody else was responsible for taking care of it, and that somebody else thought another somebody else was responsible for taking care of it…
04:08
aja
blames TBL :)
04:08
<sideshowbarker>
I think it’s not a Let’s Encrypt cert and maybe there is no automated way for keeping it up to renewed
04:10

<aja>
it's back...for next 13 months
08:27
<sideshowbarker>
I wonder if others are getting 500 errors and other weirdness from GitHub right now
08:28
<foolip>
It's not entirely like normal for me. Pushing a new branch didn't give the URL to create a PR from it, so something internally isn't working.
08:28
<sideshowbarker>
oh foolip good timing
08:29
<foolip>
I'm trying to make a PR for you actually :)
08:29
<sideshowbarker>
I am actually trying to review https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data/pull/10717
08:29
<foolip>
Ah, trying to approve gives you a 500?
08:30
<sideshowbarker>
worse — can’t even navigate to https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data/pull/10717/files
08:30
<sideshowbarker>
oh wow that’s a bonus of moving away from IRC, right there
08:30
<foolip>
Inline preview of URLs? Yeah that's great.
08:30
<foolip>
So trying to create a new PR gives me a 500.
08:31
<foolip>
And I guess I won't try to hammer it because maybe it actually has been created...
08:32
<sideshowbarker>
Inline preview of URLs? Yeah that's great.
I mean that photo — that guy who was so happy, so blissfully unaware that he’s about to start getting 500 errors himself
08:32
<sideshowbarker>
And I guess I won't try to hammer it because maybe it actually has been created...
https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data/pull/10717 did for sure get created
08:33
sideshowbarker
checks his notifications for any other PR that might also have rolled in
08:33
<foolip>
I'm trying to create another PR, for every other BCD PR I review I discover something adjacent that's wrong. A never-ending rabbit hole.
08:34
<sideshowbarker>
hah — yep, I know that particular rabbit hole very well
10:35
<foolip>
sideshowbarker: sorted now it seems, I could create https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data/pull/10720
10:36
<sideshowbarker>
sideshowbarker: sorted now it seems, I could create https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data/pull/10720
Ok, will take a look
11:01
<sideshowbarker>
annevk Other than AbortSignal.abort() and shadowing.delegatesFocus, are there any features in the DOM spec that have less than 2 implementations?
11:09
<annevk>
Nobody else shipped AbortSignal.abort() yet?
11:10
<annevk>
In general though I'm not the best at keeping track of these things. If that's what wpt says I'd trust that. 😊
11:18
<sideshowbarker>
Ok
15:57
<miketayl_r>
sup everyone
15:58
<sideshowbarker>
howdy hey miketayl_r
15:59
<miketayl_r>
(took me a minute to figure out how to add this room... i thought i would need to add a new server or something)
15:59
<miketayl_r>
web 4.0 is wild
16:02
<sideshowbarker>
miketayl_r: about that, we have a requirement here that you throw in as many emoji as possible into your messages and decorate other people’s messages with as many as possible
16:02
<miketayl_r>
i will do my best
16:02
<sideshowbarker>
OK cool —because as you know, the answer to “What is web 4.0” is clearly: emoji
16:02
<miketayl_r>
i actually just learned that web 3.0 is crypto, https://blogs.opera.com/tips-and-tricks/2021/01/what-is-web-3-0-and-why-you-should-care/
16:03
<miketayl_r>
or maybe it's iot, i dunno
16:04
<sideshowbarker>
hmm, crypto + emoji = web 5.0?
16:04
<sideshowbarker>
you can also get more reputation points by posting giant superfluous images directly to the channel — like at https://chat.mozilla.org/#/room/#whatwg:matrix.org/$CyvdZzCILRkt0d6OWU46KOgkZDua8XxPni328gm35j4
16:05
<miketayl_r>
the possibilities are endless
16:06
<sideshowbarker>
that’s the new addendum motto to your motto: “Please leave your sense of logic at the door … the possibilities are endless”
16:06
<sideshowbarker>
heh
16:08
<sideshowbarker>
and finally, note that wanderview arrived here one hour ahead of you, so he’s got that much extra reputation points already that he can spend
16:08
<sideshowbarker>
howdy wanderview too
16:08
<miketayl_r>
i assume the longer i idle, the more whatwg coin i mine
16:10
<miketayl_r>
ok, i have a real question, maybe for tabatkins -- it seems like the spec make deploy script gets sad if you have EXTRA_FILES -- it eventually calls curlbikeshed and then that errors out because it can't find those files (i guess it runs in /tmp)
16:10
<miketayl_r>
e.g., https://github.com/whatwg/compat/pull/147/checks?check_run_id=2690411902
16:10
<miketayl_r>
i wonder if anybody else has run into this yet
16:11
<miketayl_r>
https://compat.spec.whatwg.org/stroked-text.png is obviously v important
16:13
<hober>
wouldn't it be web 7.0? maybe i did the math wrong
16:13
<hober>
wouldn't it be web 7.0? maybe i did the math wrong
hahahah i really did do the math wrong
16:15
<miketayl_r>
lol
16:15
<jgraham>
Right, web 9.0 is when we have an API for executing JS in ring0 (behind a permission prompt)
16:15
<sideshowbarker>
miketayl_r: looking at https://resources.whatwg.org/build/deploy.sh now. I think annevk and Domenic would know something about EXTRA_FILES (if anybody does…)
16:17
<annevk>
Please leave your sense of logic at the door, bring your emoji
16:18
<miketayl_r>
it seems like we can tell the bikeshed API to ignore errors, but that's probably a terrible solution, https://tabatkins.github.io/bikeshed/#curl
16:19
<wanderview>
hello
16:19
<annevk>
miketayl_r: can you file an issue against whatwg/whatwg.org?
16:19
<miketayl_r>
annevk: yeah, np
16:19
<wanderview>
I was somewhat hoping to have this chat and the mozilla chat in the same tab, but I guess they are on separate servers
16:20
<annevk>
It seems like Bikeshed is trying to find the files and maybe we deal with them after running bikeshed or some such
16:20
<annevk>
wanderview: you can keep them in the same tab
16:20
<miketayl_r>
yeah -- you can just add this as a new "channel"
16:21
<miketayl_r>
in ur existing moz setup
16:21
<annevk>
wanderview: in explore rooms you can add other servers to look in
16:21
<jgraham>
(assuming you're using the same account, I think)
16:21
<annevk>
(I'm also working on getting us the whatwg:mozilla.org alias, but it's taking time)
16:23
<wanderview>
I see, thanks!
16:23
<wanderview>
I had different accounts... but I see I can now message asuth on his mozilla account, etc
16:24
<sideshowbarker>
miketayl_r: ./deploy.sh: line 99: $1: unbound variable at https://github.com/whatwg/compat/pull/147/checks?check_run_id=2690411902#step:4:25 may or may not related to that later No such file or directory: '/tmp/stroked-text.png' error
16:25
<sideshowbarker>
and it is so very great that every time we post that link here, Karl appears
16:26
<sideshowbarker>
as far as I can see, the deploy.sh script expects to be called with some argument… but I don’t know what — and anyway, https://github.com/whatwg/compat/blob/main/Makefile#L24 s not calling it any any argument
16:27
<sideshowbarker>
but the makefiles for other repos don’t call it with any argument either — see https://github.com/whatwg/dom/blob/main/Makefile#L23 — so whoknows maybe it’s not a problem at all
16:29
<miketayl_r>
i just found that if i change -F die-on=warning to F die-on=fatal, it seems to work as expected
16:29
<wanderview>
will w3c still be using its irc server in the future? for tpac, etc
16:29
<wanderview>
wondering if I should cancel my irccloud account
16:30
<sideshowbarker>
wanderview: yes w3c will still be using its server for the forseeable future
16:30
<hober>
I was somewhat hoping to have this chat and the mozilla chat in the same tab, but I guess they are on separate servers
I have them in the same tab
16:31
<sideshowbarker>
but some of us are hoping to move more channels from w3c irc and over to here — e.g., jgraham is for the #testing channel
16:33
<sideshowbarker>
but there is gonna be some inertia against moving WG channels until we have rrsagent and zakim bot equivalents for matrix I guess
16:33
<sideshowbarker>
some groups very much rely on using irc for the meetings, and being able to generate meeting minutes easily with rrsagent, and manage the speaker queue with zakim
16:37
<sideshowbarker>
jgraham: about #testing, I guess you see that you and I both now have ops on the irc channel — but I don’t know what good that does us as far as fixing the FDNPK0PMG5N0 (IRC) and 246 others channel name problem that foolip pointed out — @kegan:matrix.org seems to be the only person with admin perms to change that
16:39
<Andreu Botella (he/they)>
You can link your matrix account to a user in a bridge IRC network, and I believe that should give you permissions to the matrix room
16:39
<Andreu Botella (he/they)>
https://matrix-org.github.io/matrix-appservice-irc/latest/usage.html#customising-your-experience
16:39
<sideshowbarker>
Andreu Botella (he/they): ah cool — will try that
16:44
<annevk>
Yeah, I'm using a bridge for the testing channel. It has a weird room name though.
16:44
<sideshowbarker>
annevk: yeah I think we all have that FDNPK0PMG5N0 (IRC) and 246 others weird room name for it showing up
16:45
<sideshowbarker>
PSA: we now have timestamp-linkable logs for this channel at https://matrixlogs.bakkot.com/WHATWG/
16:45
<Andreu Botella (he/they)>
Apparently matrix rooms don't need to have a name: https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.0#calculating-the-display-name-for-a-room
16:46
<sideshowbarker>
annevk: may be worth adding https://matrixlogs.bakkot.com/WHATWG/ to the topic
16:47
<sideshowbarker>
Apparently matrix rooms don't need to have a name: https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.0#calculating-the-display-name-for-a-room
ah yeah think that’s the core problem — that room somehow doesn’t have a name, so the clients (or some middle thing) end up computing it
16:48
<Sam Sneddon [:gsnedders]>
wanderview: yes w3c will still be using its server for the forseeable future
having an official W3C Matrix bridge would be nice, though.
16:49
<Sam Sneddon [:gsnedders]>
but some of us are hoping to move more channels from w3c irc and over to here — e.g., jgraham is for the #testing channel
#testing is kinda a specific case at this point, given it isn't really W3C related at this point. maybe we should just creating a #web-platform-tests:matrix.org for it and be done with it.
16:54
<sideshowbarker>
#testing is kinda a specific case at this point, given it isn't really W3C related at this point. maybe we should just creating a #web-platform-tests:matrix.org for it and be done with it.
sounds good to me — or even just #wpt:matrix.org
16:57
<sideshowbarker>
having an official W3C Matrix bridge would be nice, though.
about the general topic of w3c moving away from irc, https://github.com/w3c/modern-tooling/issues/16 is the place where that discussion has been taking place already — for 6 years now, since the time when Robin Berjon first opened it
17:00
<sideshowbarker>
I have been meaning to post a comment to that issue to propose that w3c set up its own matrix homeserver, with a list of reasons why that makes a lot more sense now — including the fact that w3c peers orgs are on Matrix now: #whatwg:matrix.org and #tc39-general:matrix.org — and even IETF, which has its own Matrix server, for #xmpp_hallway_jabber.ietf.org:matrix.organd all
17:01
<sideshowbarker>
the IETF matrix server is just a bridge to their jabber server — but it’s still progress
19:42
<jgraham>
#wpt:matrix.org now exists
21:44
<miketayl_r>
lame, you can't add an emoji reaction to someone joining the room
21:48
<sideshowbarker>
well we need more than just emoji to celebrate karlcow finally showing up
