Has anyone talked about adding Github-like social networking to Fossil? If not, I was thinking it might be a useful idea to talk about. Suppose you had a personal "Network" page for each user in a repository, available only to them when they are logged in. That would allow any repository to serve as a "home base" for that user. If a user wants to follow another repository, that could place a signed record in the followed repository with a URL pointing back to the "home base" repository (the followed repo could verify the followed records with the home base repos to check that they are still valid). The Network page could show a list of repositories that the user is following, along with some details about each repository and a list of the N most recent timeline items from all the followed repositories. The repo could checkpoint the timeline of the followed repositories.
Just some thoughts -- I think something like this could work like a sort of distributed Github account system. Bill
