With the time I currently have waiting for treatment I’ve decided to use it do whatever tickles my brain :). One such moment was deciding to implement webmentions or an interpretation of it for this blog. Anyway, one of the decisions I made was I wouldn’t worry about backwards compatibility here, it wasn’t (isn’t) worth my limited time and doesn’t really tickle my brain for my private corner of the web.
Anyway, after a little discovery I’ve found out that bloody wordpress has an internal xmlrpc.php endpoint to help keep their mobile app running; my decision was fine (to see how I go with this distributed social web) I just didn’t plan on wasting time seeing if I needed to revisit my decisions… because wordpress aren’t pruning their old (misleading?) code in blogs I’d like to follow :(.
I wish things could be perfect, but witnessing the messy state of a living world is also a blessing.
