Namespace: The official docs for the value block are now up:

https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/podcast-namespace/blob/main/value/value.md

This took a long time to write up. If you see any typos, flaws, etc. please let me know.

With version 3.4.0 the Podlove Publisher Plugin now supports the transcript and person tags. Thanks to @ericteubert.

New episode of Podfriend out on the web - desktop will follow once I see it works as expected.

I really wanted the Bitcoin streaming to be part of it, but I'm not sure it will scale yet, so I've untangled that work from the release. (I do plan to stream some sats to the Podcasting 2.0 show tomorrow from the beta though!)

Here's the list of things & fixes (there's also other small changes and bug fixes that I haven't bothered writing down)

The Season tags in the episode list are looking great @podcastaddict

I've been eyeing a move to Buzzsprout since hearing the comments @adam made on the last Podcast 2.0. The way that they handled the recent DDoS attack, with determination and total transparency, explaining the process in real time, actually makes me trust them more. Will likely migrate #BowlAfterBowl there some time in the coming weeks.

@anita @adam @dave

Listened to the whole Podcast and found it to be very valuable. I will soon be creating content of my own and would like to learn more about website servers and Podcast hosting. Anita mentioned Wordpress and a plug-in called Podlove. Any suggestions?

Ok, now let's see if the ipfs auto-publish script works. 🤞

Bitcoin Magazine invited me to talk about podcasting 2.0 📣 @adam @dave

Podbean is still under attack. We’re all sharing notes to help each other. Podcasting community FTW!

@dellagustin @adam I have a sandbox/testing podcast that I'd be happy to use for it. I was talking to paul yesterday and he mentioned embedding the "routing hint" directly in the payment address, sort of like HTTP basic auth in a url.

So like: "wal_blahblahblah@<nodepubkey>" as the address in the split.

Thoughts?

Namespace: We're going to officially change over to a share based calculation for the value block as @agates and @coldacid suggested. It won't break anything that currently exists. It's just a conceptual change to the math.

So a 50/45/5 split is the same as a 380/171/19 split.

Just a heads up about this to anyone coding this right now.

We're going to bring in a "custom record" too, as proposed. Just working it out with @sphinx_chat to see what works best for them.

This is only the first 100,000 records. Can I get a few folks to grab a copy of it as a test to make sure we're good?

If so, I'll begin publishing the whole feed list at this address and schedule it to update once per day.

This is the first crack at publishing our podcast feed list continuously with IPFS/IPNS:

Podlove Now supports the funding tag: https://github.com/podlove/podlove-publisher/releases/tag/3.3.1

Thank you to the ~10 people from the Podcast Index community who helped us with Beta testing the iOS and Android builds 🙏 you were enormously helpful with identifying bugs and areas of improvement.

If anyone else would be interested in joining our Beta testing program, please let me know here or email contact@podverse.fm and we can get you setup to receive the pre-released versions of the app.
