Hey everyone, Alexander and I are Bachelor student’s at the Hasso Plattner Institute in Potsdam in the Wikidata.lib project. We started developing an extension [1] to MediaWiki to support the PubSubHubbub [2] protocol (see BugZilla ticket [3]). Currently, the extension publishes all changes to individual articles to a settings-defined hub and everyone can subscribe to specific articles and is then notified of all changes to that article via an HTTP push mechanism. The next feature on our list is supporting subscriptions to Special:Log and Special:RecentChanges. For now the extension only works for regular MediaWiki articles, not Wikibase objects. We will start a discussion about what format to use for exchanging the data on wikidata-tech soon.
You can always track our progress in our code repository [4]. BR, Alexander and Sebastian.
