How about extending the Universal Blog API for storing user comments? That'd make it a complete out-of-the-box blogging solution (a user may opt for using a comments service provider like Disqus OR use the inbuilt comments API). The spec could look somewhat like so:
- Directory Structure:
_comments //folder with json files containing user comments
- Comments file: {{post identifier}}.json //could be simply the post filename.
- Comments structure: {
"comments" : [{
"id" : "1123", //unique comment id
"author" : "Chuck Norris",
"author_handle" : "chuck@norris.com", //or a website
"date" : "yyyy-mm-dd", //comment date
"content" : "Hei! Chuck makes dumb comments."
},
{
"id" : "1124",
"author" : "Superman",
"author_handle" : "superman.com",
"date" : "yyyy-mm-dd",
"content" : "Superman is scared of Chuck."
},
]
}
We can leave the comment id and author details up to the login implementation.I know it is none of my business but if you are looking for opinions I would kindly say "please do not use "Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike - BY-NC-SA 3.0)." I wanted to use jeklybootstrap for my fledgling one man consulting shop but I could not because of the license....
EDIT/UPDATE:
I just saw this at the bottom of the ruhoh page:
"All my work is Unlicensed, Open and Free."
Its a little confusing seeing that the jb license says otherwise...
Jekyll Bootstrap, Ruhoh are completely 100% Unlicensed, or MIT or whatever is the most permissive license available.
I want you to use my work to benefit as much as you can Douglas, I'll even email you personally, waiving all rights for your own records. Just shoot me over your email.
I love Open Source and I don't want to restrict any body in any way. Thanks for pointing out this confusion!
At that point you have covered your bases and I and many others would feel comfortable using/extending/developing with it.
Sqlite is public domain for example.
I like the idea of Public Domain with fallback MIT. The main thing is I want it to be un-copyright-able.
Thanks for the suggestion and do feel free to check out the development progress on github!
