• base64 stuff: %NyoXRbM...
  • this is now mostly resolved:
    • ssb will enforce canonicity
    • the base64 rust crate will reject non-canonical input soon
• created a mdBook for the spec: https://github.com/sunrise-choir/spec
  • @dinosaur, can you do some magic so that this gets compiled and published at spec.scuttlebutt.nz upon a push to master?
    • or if asking for magic is too much, is there a more mundane way to get the spec onto the www?
• finished the ctlv implementation: https://github.com/AljoschaMeyer/ctlv/commit/2d28a1654a99709dfdb26afb4f1ba9ac070699b7
• walked up and down the room, throwing a ball, thinking about replication strategies and overlapping distributed spanning trees
  • I think that falls in the intersection between "fun" and "useful for ssb"
• started a canonical json serializer for regular serde
