Going to start IndieWebCamp Day 2 by working on http://indiewebcamp.com/vouch

• Step 1: create an approval algorithm
• Step 2: when accepting webmentions, check against the approval algorithm
** if the source passes your initial approval algorithm, accept the webmention as normal
** if the source does not pass, return HTTP 449 to indicate the sender should re-try sending with a vouch parameter
• Step 3: when a webmention comes in with a vouch, check webmention as normal, then verify the vouch:
** check if I approve the vouching domain (it passed my approval algorithm)
** fetch the vouch URL, verify that it actually does link to the source's domain without rel=nofollow
** if vouch verification fails, return HTTP 400

"No no no, you *railed* it!" - @obra to @benwerd after solving the issue in the first 30 seconds. #indiewebcamp

We'll be livestreaming all the #indiewebcamp sessions in the main room today! http://indiewebcamp.com/2014/Cambridge/Live

We're starting #indiewebcamp Cambridge this morning with demos! Follow along with the livestream: http://indiewebcamp.com/2014/Cambridge/Live

Notes from today's livestreaming of #cyborgcamp:

Things I need to bring next time:
• extension cords for both video cameras
• HDMI repeater so the cameras can be farther from the switcher
• Gaffer's tape!

Operations:
• One stationary camera is fine, but it would be super useful to have a camera operator on another camera who can pan and zoom the camera to get better shots, especially when the audience is asking questions.
• Need to leave a computer online at home with a large hard drive running Bittorrent Sync, so that I can have an off-site copy of the video after downloading the footage to my on-site hard drive.

Unanswered questions:
• How can I get a single channel of audio coming from room mics to be duplicated to the left and right digital channels that are being broadcast?
