The author of the IndieWeb ring has moved the codebase to PHP. heh. Heh. HEH.

Wow, thanks for digging in to this! I am definitely interested in your setup for PHPUnit!

Ordering for previous / next in the ring is also something I’m open to discussion on. Join-time makes some sense, but always felt limiting. I’ve been thinking of implementing it entirely separately from the Sites table, so it’s easy to try out different algorithms. I think it’d be fun to change up the sorting periodically.

Please let me know if you post your version somewhere. I realize using my personal git hosting makes things like pull requests a lot more challenging. I’m open to mirroring gem-diamond to Github if you’re interested in collaborating there.

It's simple enough to roll back database changes to try different …

He posted about his own updates in Playing with IndieWeb ring's code, and I posted a follow-up with …
