CALS_βConlang Atlas of Language Structures

A new tiny feature is under development: me-links, which can be used for verifying control of an url. That verification can then be used to among other things log in, see IndieLogin.com.

How it works:

1. On the page you want to prove ownership of, say http://example.org/its-me/, you put a magic link with the attribute rel="me", for instance if you have an account at mastodon.social: <a href="https://mastodon.social/@exampleuser" rel="me">Me on masto!</a>
2. On a site with support for me-links, like mastodon.social, add the url "http://example.org/its-me/" in step one to the correct place.
3. Now if you visit the profile of "exampleuser" at mastodon.social, there will be a green checkmark next to "example.org/its-me/"

See IndieWeb: rel-me for more info.

It's not possible for ya'll to add your own me-links yet, there's more testing needed for that bit, but the goal is that the new feature is finished in time for LCC12 in Copenhagen which happens in July this year.

And of course, if this feature works out, there will be a badge...

The development version at https://dev.cals.info/ has been modernized a bit: fewer tables, more modern CSS like flexbox and grid. Yes, there are glitches and bugs, thanks to having set a max width.

Unfortunately, the CALS repo at Codeberg does not support discussions. However, if you find bugs or have suggestions for improvements, use the issue tracker.

The link at /people/change, found on your profile page, now actually lets you change your account data instead of failing woth a 404.
