Bibliography on PubSub: * Storing (privately); * Publishing (publicly); * Sharing (restrictedly). I am currently focued on systems which are commonly referred as "bookmark managers" or "links directories".

I will strive to make BukuBot utilizable with PubSub in both fashions you have described. > Best, > Goffi P.S. Please read the following notes. Important notes to understand my thoughts and approach to the subject: 1. I refer to Bibliogrphy as a list of anything textual, not only a reference of articles, books, and other sorts of publications. 2. To me, bibliographic references are mistakenly known as "Bookmarks", "Favorites" (terms used by HTML browsers), "Social Bookmarking Systems" (term used by HTML based systems) etc. and those terms cause for confusion to many people who consequently and inadvertently neglect the potential of posessing (i.e. holding and owning) a personal bibliography. 3. I have a different approach to what some attempt to indoctrinate the public, and I refer to bookmarks, contacts and even magnet links (ed2k, gnutella, torrents) etc. as *bibliography*. 4. To store my contacts, I use a directory with vCards (each contact has its own vCard file. See https://codeberg.org/magdesign/sxmo-userscripts/issues/1 5. Recently, I have been using my bookmarks manager, buku, to store also contacts and magnet links, so I, in fact, use a software (buku), which is originally intended to be a "bookmark manager" (for HTTP links), as a general system for everything which is textual (i.e. bookmarks, contacts (irc, telephony, voip, xmpp), gemini, gopher, magnet links, ssh etc.), albeit buku is not intended for storing this information, it does that task well, and even better than any solution I have been striving to find. See: https://github.com/jarun/buku 6. In a similar context if not in the same context, YaCy search engine, which, like buku, is a links directory system has began as a "bookmarks manager". See: https://yacy.net/ 7. I understand that a "search engine", so called (what does "engine" mean in this context?) is really a jargon which some of the public has been indoctrinated to use, and is actually a links directory - of course it has a larger caching system for text to look up, but it is nevertheless a database of textual links directory of publications (bibliography), just like the one that some HTML browsers have. 8. To me, buku is a static bibliography manager, Falkon is an HTML browser and a static bibliography manager, Liferea (Syndicated Feed Reader) is a dynamic bibliography manager, YaCy, as it also supports Syndicated Feeds, is both a static and a dynamic bibliography manager. 9. XMPP PubSub is all of the above. _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list -- standards@xmpp.org To unsubscribe send an email to standards-le...@xmpp.org
