    I'm just going to point back to what @sandhawke said:

    > Abandoning your early adopters before establishing a new user base means you have nobody.

    The time to suggest a 100% breaking change to the spec has long passed. There is already a lot of written and deployed code that sends webmentions using form-encoded syntax. It's not a matter of simply making a "tiny" change to switch to JSON, since it will affect senders as well as receivers, some of which are using libraries on both sides, not to mention the fact that this software is deployed quite widely and in places where a single person can't even mandate that it be updated. Such is the situation when a spec gets widely implemented.

    It's true that not all webmention targets are HTML documents. Because of this, I think it's reasonable to clarify the text, changing

    > The sender MUST fetch the target URL (and follow redirects [FETCH]) and check for an HTTP Link header [RFC5988] with a rel value of `webmention`, or an HTML `<link>` or `<a>` element with a rel value of `webmention`.

    to

    > The sender MUST fetch the target URL (and follow redirects [FETCH]) and check for an HTTP Link header [RFC5988] with a rel value of `webmention`, and if the content-type of the target URL is HTML, the sender MUST also check for an HTML `<link>` or `<a>` element with a rel value of `webmention`.

    Requiring all senders to check for the HTTP `Link` header provides the largest opportunity for interop among implementations, since it's possible to publish a Link header regardless of content type.

    If you have specific examples of wanting to advertise a webmention endpoint in a non-HTML document, please document them and suggest a (as you said) "standards-compliant way" of advertising the endpoint in the document.

    It is SUPER confusing that there is a guy at work named Travis who manages some of the build/testing infrastructure

    This is perhaps the first step in the fall of certificate authorities in favor of p2p root CA trust sharing. https://twitter.com/FiloSottile/status/735940720931012608

    Instead of asking for clarification or arguing with people who give vague criticism, I’m just going to unfollow/ignore them. #lifehacks

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
