I would like to allow comments on ikiwiki pages without CGI.
-I have in mind something like
- * Use a pagetemplate hook
- in a plugin (DONE)
- * add a mailto: url to each page matching some pagespec
- (currently every page gets a comment footer)
- * this mailto url goes to an address identifying the page (something like
- user-iki-blog~I\_hate\_markdown@host.fqdn.tld). (DONE)
- [more details](http://www.cs.unb.ca/~bremner/blog/posts/encoding)
-
- * on the mail receiving end, these messages are either deleted, or ran through
- a filter to be turned into blog posts. As a first step, I have
-[written](http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git/?p=ikipostal.git;a=blob_plain;f=filters/postal-filer.pl;hb=010357a08e9)
-a filter that decodes the address and writes the message into an appropriate
-mailbox. I would be interested in any ideas people have about security.
-
- * the same plugin can check for comments on a particular page next time the wiki
- is generated, and add a link. (more or less done)
- > If the filter just checks in the posts into revision control, the
- > post-commit hook would handle updating the wiki to include those
- > posts as they come in. --[[Joey]]
- * work in progress can be
-
- - [cloned](http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git/ikiperl.git), or
- - [browsed](http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git/?p=ikipostal.git;a=summary)

-Any comments? Write them here or send them to [[DavidBremner]]

-> I don't want to derail this with too much blue-skying, but I was thinking
-> earlier that it would be nice if ikiwiki could do something sensible with
-> mailbox files, such as turning them into a (threaded?) blog display.
->
-> One reason I was thinking about that was just that it would be nice to
-> be able to use ikiwiki for mailing list archives. But another reason was
-> that it would be nice to solve the problem described in
-> [[discussion_page_as_blog]]. For that you really want a threaded system,
-> and mailbox file formats already have threading.
->
-> If that were done, it would tie into what you're working on in an
-> interesting way, since the incoming mail would only need to be committed to
-> the appropriate mailbox file, with ikiwiki then running to process it.

-The current version of this plugin is now running on my home page. See for example
-[a recent post in my blog](http://www.cs.unb.ca/~bremner/blog/posts/can-i-haz-a-distributed-rss/).
-Unfortunately although the [[mailbox|todo/mbox]] renderer supports threading, I haven't had
-a chance to implement comments on comments yet. [[DavidBremner]]
