The Salmon protocol provides for aggregating comments across sites. If a site that syndicates a feed receives a comment on an item in that feed, it can re-post the comment to the original source. > Ikiwiki does not allow comments to be posted on items it aggregates. > So salmon protocol support would only need to handle the comment > receiving side of the protocol. > > The current draft protocol document confuses me when it starts talking > about using OAuth in the abuse prevention section, since their example > does not show use of OAuth, and it's not at all clear to me where the > OAuth relationship between aggregator and original source is supposed > to come from. > > Their security model, which goes on to include Webfinger, > thirdparty validation services, XRD, and Magic Signatures, looks sorta > like they kept throwing technology, at it, hoping something will stick. :-P > --[[Joey]] [[!tag wishlist]]
