Introduction

My name is gRegor Morrill and I have been blogging on http://gregorlove.com since about 2002. PHP is my primary programming language, but I would like to branch out into Python to broaden my experience.

I helped start the Chicago chapter of the Homebrew Website Club and enjoyed attending IndieWebCamp Portland 2014, 2015, and 2016. I'm currently trying to start up a Bellingham, WA chapter of Homebrew Website Club.

Contributions

• Webmention module for ProcessWire
• IndieAuth module for ProcessWire
• Webmention plugin for Nucleus CMS
  • As of 2015-07-12 I am no longer using Nucleus CMS on my site or maintaining this plugin.

My site

I was using Nucleus CMS on my site from 2002 until 2015. The extensibility of it attracted me and served me well for a long time. I contributed to the Nucleus core code and several plugins over the years. I implemented a webmention plugin [1] and a plugin for posting notes. Unfortunately, official development has stopped. After using the ProcessWire framework professionally for several sites, I migrated my site to that in 2015.

Here are some notes on my implementations:

• My webmention implementation
• My notes implementation

Interests

In no particular order, I am interested in:

• Migrating pages to SSL-only.
• Work on better microformats test coverage in php-mf2
• Work on upgrading h2vx.com with mf2 support.

IndieWeb Summit 2016 Ideas

Some personal ideas for what I might do on Create day of 2016 Summit:

• Cache reply-context photos, one of the last items before going SSL-only.
• Declare CSS bankruptcy and rebuild my CSS from scratch (get rid of u- utility CSS, improve larger screen display, etc.)
• Integrate one or two latest notes (non-replies) on homepage
• Composite feeds
• Feed filtering (don't include likes / most @-replies)
• Set up a button to PuSH articles and notes (manually cURLing currently)
• Fix cache-clearing on Atom feed after publishing articles
