This is interesting, because I think we may be more concerned with the "topic model" than the content filtering. So we have some questions here:
1) What is the current thinking / discussion / issues about the topic model? I've searched the recent postings trying to find references and more specifics....is there a URL I can look at? 2) In the current spec, a topic is the same as a feed URL from the publisher. But could the hub aggregate and / or segregate content from incoming feed data and create its own topics? (For example, in item 2, our hub would aggregate press releases and the segregate them based on industry / language / geography into multiple topics that users can subscribe to). 3) Separately, we're also interested in being able to filter by tagged field values to create filtered feeds. -Danny On Jun 29, 7:44 pm, Brett Slatkin <[email protected]> wrote: > On Tue, Jun 29, 2010 at 4:35 PM, Alexis Richardson <[email protected]> > wrote: > > On Wed, Jun 30, 2010 at 12:31 AM, Brett Slatkin <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On Tue, Jun 29, 2010 at 3:30 PM, Alexis Richardson > >> <[email protected]> wrote: > >>> On Tue, Jun 29, 2010 at 11:09 PM, Bob Wyman <[email protected]> wrote: > >>>> Now that we've got substantial experience with topic-based PubSubHubbub, > > >>> With all due respect - I don't think we have enough yet.
