The code is now more event-driven when it comes to rendering notices
and their related HTML elements, since we can't have direct calls from
core to a plugin.
lib/activitymover.php has a function to move a Favorite activity which
will not happen now. The move must be pluginified and performed as an
event which plugins can catch on to.
Now we have to fix any code in the core which directly uses the Fave class
or any other favorite stuff, since it is pluginised and thus might not be
available on some installations.
No validation has been attempted yet. Lots of changes left. This
is visibly not (very) different from the previous CSS layout. But
some simplifications have been made.
Might cause issues with local changes to themes and CSS. Also maybe
javascript which depends on certain legacy microformats elements.
The move to microformats2 is motivated by the announcement that all
microformats should be migrated to version 2, as of 2014-06-20 at:
http://microformats.org/2014/06/20/microformats-org-turns-9-upgrade-to-microformats2
IE versions older than 8 (which these were for) should no longer
be used anyway, since they are filled with security holes and not
even Microsoft recommends or supports their use anymore.
This reverts commit 38f5038cf0.
Random problems with, I assume, Chromium users. Ranted:
"FUCK YOU CHROMIUM WITH VARYING FUNCTIONALITY AND CRAPPY
INTEROPERABILITY THE NEW FUCKING INTERNET EXPLORER"
This will be back in the future with a vengeance (patches).
Some changes should be implied as larger with an incrementing alpha
release number. Not all commits will increase this of course, but it
will give an indication on which major reworks, features or layout
changes have been made for the version being used on an instance.
Instead of setting some weird $config['plugins']['disable-Blah'] yourself.
The class name, StatusNet, will probably change in the future to GNU social.
No global function added, as it exists for addPlugin().
We don't run a service similar to update.status.net yet. Maybe we should,
but that's for the future to decide. Currently I view it as a callback
that we want to avoid.
noembed.com acts as a proxy for oEmbed requests, but that also means they
get all the links we post on our instances, given that they're used as a
default endpoint.
htmLawed cleans stuff out properly, but there's no very good way right
now to show text/html attachments, since everything gets jumbled up with
our own CSS etc. Best would be an iframe or just a new tab or so.
We're now capable of doing image rotation for thumbnails based on
EXIF orientation data. Also, thumbnails are tracked by filenames and
thus we can delete them from storage when we feel like it.
Conversation trees works pretty bad with the current layout, javascript
etc. So it's best if we separate it and work on it as a side-project. The
oldschool settings are currently being deprecated (or broken out like this).
I'll wait with removing User preferences for oldschool conversation tree,
since that might be reusable data. But I guess it will go in the near future.
