First steps to parsing RSS items as activities. RSS feeds don't seem
to have enough data to make good remote profiles, but this may work
with some "hints".
* Subscription::start was sometimes passing users instead of profiles to hooks, which broke OStatus subscription notifications; now normalizing to profiles for processing.
* H-card parsing would trigger a lot of PHP warnings and notices in hKit. Now suppressing warnings and notices for the duration of the call to keep them out of output when display_errors is on.
* H-card parsing would trigger a PHP fatal error if the source page was not well-formed XML and Tidy was not present on the system. Switched normalization to use the PHP DOM module which is always present, as we have no need for Tidy's extra features here.
* Trying to fetch avatars from Google profiles failed and triggered a PHP warning due to the relative URL not being resolved during h-card parsing. Now passing profile page URL into hKit by sneaking a <base> tag in while we normalize the HTML source.
* Profile pages without a "Link" header could trigger PHP notices due to a bad NULL -> array(NULL) conversion in LinkHeader::getLink(). Now checking that there was a return value before converting single return value into array.
We were double-unescaping for <content type="html">, turning <b> escaped chars into literal tags (which then may get removed entirely by the HTML scrubber).
For instance this was throwing an exception for DB_DataObject::staticGet when there's no match... definitely not what we want when all our code expects to get a nice null.
Example of this causing trouble: http://gitorious.org/statusnet/mainline/merge_requests/131
Revert "Don't attempt to retrieve the current user from the DB while processing a DB error"
This reverts commit 68347691b0.
Revert "Use PHP exceptions for PEAR error handling."
This reverts commit d8212977ce.

While deletion is in progress, the account is locked with the 'deleted' role, which disables all actions with rights control.
Todo:
* Pretty up the notice on the profile page about the pending delete. Show status?
* Possibly more thorough account disabling, such as disallowing all use for login and access.
* Improve error recovery; worst case is that an account gets left locked in 'deleted' state but the queue jobs have gotten dropped out. This would leave the username in use and any undeleted notices in place.
Under MySQL, new tables will be created as InnoDB with UTF-8 (utf8/utf8_bin) same as core tables.
Existing plugin tables will have table engine and default charset/collation updated, and string columns will have charset updated, at checkschema time.
Switched from 'DESCRIBE' to INFORMATION_SCHEMA for pulling column information in order to get charset. A second hit to INFORMATION_SCHEMA is also needed to get table properties.
Indices were only being created at table creation time, which ain't so hot. Now also adding/dropping indices when they change.
Fixed up some schema defs in OStatus plugin that were a bit flaky, causing extra alter tables to be run.
TODO: Generalize this infrastructure a bit more up to base schema & pg schema classes.
I think this is a bug in Youtube's web server (sending chunked encoding of an empty body with a HEAD response, leaving the connection out of sync when it doesn't attempt to read a body) but the HTTP_Request2 library may need to be adjusted to watch out for that.
Keeps stray daemon subprocesses from floating around when we kill the parents via a signal!
Accomplished by opening a bidirectional pipe in the parent process; the children close out the writer end and keep the reader in their open sockets list. When the parent dies, the children see that the socket's been closed out and can perform an orderly shutdown.
The final whitespace should be dropped from the source messages after we've stabilized; trailing space is pretty unreliable to keep through translation tools and should be avoided. Use separator strings outside the messages!
OStatus plugin overrides these to allow using webfinger (user@example.com), profile URL (http://example.com/user) and bare profile URL (example.com/user) as arguments.
Gets Spanish, French, Russian etc UI localization working on Debian Lenny fresh installation set up in Spanish (so es_ES.UTF-8 is available but en_US.UTF-8 isn't).
The upstream class sets $this->basejid with host unconditionally, which wasn't previously an issue as the fulljid would always be filled in by the server at connect time before sending messages. With the new queued messaging, we need to make sure we've filled out $this->fulljid correctly without making a connection.
Now using $server if provided to build $this->basejid and $this->fulljid in the queued XMPP proxy class, so queued messages are sent correctly.
- switch 'en_US' to 'en', fixes the "admin panel switches to Arabic" bug
- tweak setting descriptions to clarify that most of the time we'll be using browser language
- add a backend switch to disable language detection (should this be exposed to ui?)
* 'testing' of gitorious.org:statusnet/mainline:
Using position relative only for the remote subscription in section
Added group subscription button to groups mini list
Added event hooks at the start and end of groups mini list
All 'connect' menu panels used to be optional, so Action tried to
figure out what the first item on the 'connect' menu should be.
This is no longer necessary because we have the non-optional OAuth
client connections panel now, which is not optional and can't be
turned off.
Also stripping id from foreign HTML messages (could interfere with UI) and disabled failing attachment popup for a.attachment links that don't have a proper id, so you can click through instead of getting an error.
Issues:
* any other links aren't marked and saved
* inconsistent behavior between local and remote attachments (local displays in lightbox, remote doesn't)
* if the enclosure'd object isn't referenced in the content, you won't be offered a link to it in our UI
We only need one author for user feeds: the user themselves. So, show
the user as the activity:subject, and don't repeat the same
activity:actor for every notice unnecessarily.

In a federated system, "@nickname" is insufficient to uniquely
identify a user. However, it's a very convenient idiom. We need to
guess from context who 'nickname' refers to.
Previously, we were using the sender's profile (or what we knew about
them) as the only context. So, we assumed that they'd be mentioning to
someone they followed, or someone who followed them, or someone on
their own server.
Now, we include the notice information for context. We check to see if
the notice is a reply to another notice, and if the author of the
original notice has the nickname 'nickname', then the mention is
probably for them. Alternately, if the original notice mentions someone
with nickname 'nickname', then this notice is probably referring to
_them_.
Doing this kind of context sleuthing means we have to render the
content very late in the notice-saving process.
* 'testing' of gitorious.org:statusnet/mainline:
init_conversation.php script to copy old notice conversations into the conversation table
cache results of webfinger lookups
Parse an hcard for hints, if available
use new hcard method for webfinger
add hkit for hCard parsing
use new dedicated hcard method for Webfinger profile
Add an hcard action
* 'testing' of gitorious.org:statusnet/mainline:
OStatus: if no <link> available and no profileurl hint passed in, use object id if it's an HTTP(S) URL. Fixes profile link for Google accounts.
Tweak common_url_to_nickname to take the last path component; fixes pulling nicks from Google profile pages (path is "/profile/<nickname>")
Fix bug on subscribe/unsubscribe in profile lists. Bogus call to nonexisting profile->getProfile() was masked by DB_DataObject
A dedicated hcard action for users. Our profile page includes
an hcard, but it's so full of other hcards that it's ambiguous which
one is the "real" one. So, this one make sense for meaning, "This is
my hcard."
* 'testing' of gitorious.org:statusnet/mainline:
Not sure how this ended up in wrong-cased dir...
OStatus: fix remote groups to work with new user_groups/local_groups split.
Conflicts:
classes/User_group.php
- fix <activity:subject> generation so we get the profile info (what's available so far)
- use id instead of nickname for group join/leave forms so we can join/leave remote groups
while the rest of the groups UI remains limited to local groups
(plugins are responsible for making sure remote notifications and permission checks are done)
- fix remote notification when joining group through OStatus's remote subscribe form
* 'testing' of gitorious.org:statusnet/mainline:
Merge StatusNet core localization updates from 0.9.x branch

Drop HTMLPurifier; we don't need its extra capabilities and we're already using htmLawed which is lighter-weight.
OStatus: handle update-profile Salmon pings
Revert "Updated jQuery Form Plugin from v2.17 to v2.36"
OStatus: disable HTMLPurify cache unless we've configured a writable path for it.
- add event hooks to profile update pings
- send Salmon pings with custom update-profile event to OStatus subscribees and groups (subscribers will see it on your next post)
- fix OStatus queues with overlong transport names, should work on DB queues now
- Ostatus_profile::notifyActivity() and ::notifyDeferred() now can take XML, Notice, or Activity for convenience
the shorthand that I've proposed at
http://microformats.org/wiki/geo-brainstorming#latitude_longitude_shorthand_and_geo_link
If anyone wants to pick up on where the discussion was left off or
get more implementation support by other sites and software, and be
recognized by parsers, I'd be happy to go back to the shorthand.
Because you know, it actually makes a lot of sense.
- added rel="ostatus:attention" links for group delivery
- added events for plugins to override group profile/permalink pages
- pulled Notice::saveGroups up to save-time so we can override;
it's relatively cheap and gives us a clean list of target
groups for distrib time even with customized delivery.
- fixed notice::getGroups to return group objects as expected
- added some doc on new parameters to Notice::saveNew
- 'groups' list of group IDs to push to in place of parsing
- messages that come in via PuSH and contain local group targets
are delivered to local group members
- messages that come in via PuSH and contain remote group targets
are delivered to local members of the remote group
Todo:
- handle group posts that only come through Salmon
- handle conflicts in case something comes in both through Salmon and PuSH
- better source verification
- need a cleaner interface to look up groups by URI
- need a way to handle remote groups with conflicting names
Combined the code that finds mentions of other profiles into one place.
common_find_mentions() finds mentions and calls hooks to allow
supplemental syntax for mentions (like OStatus).
common_linkify_mentions() links mentions.
common_linkify_mention() links a mention.
Notice::saveReplies() now uses common_find_mentions() instead of
trying to parse everything again.
I changed the way that tag: URIs are minted, so we now use the right
base. Ideally most of these would use HTTP URIs instead, but for
now at least they use the right base.
We've been making pretty crummy tag: URIs for a while. We should
continue to favor HTTP URIs, since it's nice to be able to discover
things about an object you've shared the ID of. Where that's not
possible, this makes nicer tag URIs.
The subs_* functions in subs.php have made a lot of assumptions
about users versus profiles. I've refactored the functions to
be methods of the Subscription class instead, and to use Profile
objects throughout.
Some of the checks for blocks or existing subscriptions depended
on users or profiles, so I've moved those methods around a bit.
I've left stubs for the subs_* functions until we get time to replace
them.
All breakout queues that we're going to need to listen to now need to be explicitly listed in $config['queue']['breakout'].
Until XMPP is moved to component model, this setting will let the individual processes work with their own queues:
$config['queue']['breakout'][] = 'xmpp/xmppout/' . $config['site']['nickname'];
- Multiplexing queues into groups and for multiple sites.
- Sharing vs breakout configurable per site and per queue via $config['queue']['breakout']
- Detect how many times a message is redelivered, discard if it's killed too many daemons
- count configurable with $config['queue']['max_retries']
- can dump the items to files in $config['queue']['dead_letter_dir']
Queue daemon memory & resource leak fixes:
- avoid unnecessary reconnections to memcached server (switch persistent connections back in on second initialization, assuming it's child process)
- monkey-patch for leaky .ini loads in DB_DataObject::databaseStructure() - was leaking 200k per active switch
- applied leak fixes to Status_network as well, using intermediate base Safe_DataObject for both it and Memcache_DataObject
Misc queue fixes:
- correct handling of child processes exiting due to signal termination instead of regular exit
- shutdown instead of infinite respawn loop if we're already past the soft memory limit at startup
- Added --all option for xmppdaemon... still opens one xmpp connection per site that has xmpp active
Cache updates:
- add Cache::increment() method with native support for memcached atomic increment
