hi,
This is about my gsoc proposal [0] which is about to build a twitter
@anywhere like platform
Now twitter @anywhere is out [1] and I think this is the right time to start
the discussion.
@anywhere provides
------------------------------
* allows users use current API as a Javascript library [2]
* some set of special widgets that rendered on the page using js (follow
button,statusbox)
problems
-------------
* Do we actually going to compatible twitter's @anywhere API. We have
twitter like API.
So are we going to wrap it with javascript
* The biggest problem - Twiiter is centralized but we are federated.
So how can we deal with remote users.
eg:- How a abc.status.net user subscribe to identi.ca (this seems not to
be a big problem)
How do we render statusBox for remote users and get their User
Object to play with(which is currently done by @anywhere) .
