If set up, this hub will be used to subscribe to feeds that don't specify a hub of their own.
Assumes that the fallback hub will, in fact, handle polling and updates for any feed we throw at it!
Authentication may be specified for the fallback hub.
Example:
$config['feedsub']['fallback_hub'] = 'https://superfeedr.com/hubbub';
$config['feedsub']['hub_user'] = 'abcd';
$config['feedsub']['hub_pass'] = 'ckcmdkmckdmkcdk';
Also:
* Fix for WordPress-RSS-via-Superfeedr-Atom; if we have <author> info but no ID from a native ActivityStreams actor, don't freak out in the low-level processing code that checks for identity matches.
* enhanced messages for low-level FeedSub exceptions if they make it to outside display
* renamed FeedSub plugin to OStatus
* now setting avatar on subscriptions
* general fixes for subscription
* integrated PuSH hub to handle only user timelines on canonical ID url; sends updates directly
* set $config['feedsub']['nohub'] = true to test w/ foreign feeds that don't have hubs (won't actually receive updates though)
* a few bits of code documentation
* HMAC support for verified distributions (safest if sub setup is on HTTPS)
And a couple core changes:
* minimizing HTML output for exceptions in API requests to aid in debugging
* fix for rel=self link in apitimelineuser when id given
This does not not yet include any of the individual subscription management (Salmon notifications for sub/unsub, etc) nor a nice UI for user subscriptions.
Needs some further cleanup to treat posts as status updates instead of link references.
