common_shorten_links() can only access the web session's logged-in user, so never properly took user options into effect for posting via XMPP, API, mail, etc.
Adds an optional $user parameter on common_shorten_links(), and a $user->shortenLinks() as a clearer interface for that.
Tweaked some lower-level functions so $user gets passed down -- making the $notice_id param previously there for saving URLs at notice save time generalized a little.
Note also ticket #2919: there's a lot of duplicate code calling the shortening, checking the length, and reporting near-identical error messages. These should be consolidated to aid in code and translation maintenance.
* now ignoring if-modified-since if we failed an etag if-none-match comparison, per spec
* now including a hash of user id/nickname in most etags, so we'll update the view properly after login/logout
For API methods, checking the API-auth'ed user. (Many change results to include things like 'you're subscribed to this user' or 'this is one of your favorites', so user info is again needed)
There'll still be some last-modified stamps that aren't including user info properly, probably.
I changed the way that tag: URIs are minted, so we now use the right
base. Ideally most of these would use HTTP URIs instead, but for
now at least they use the right base.
* 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.
* Mostly punctuation updates so that the same message is used consistently in all of StatusNet.
* Some cases of "Title Case" removed, because that does not appear to be used consistently.
