Federation and Python webapps
FOSDEM 2015

Decentralize the web! Everyone wants to, but actually getting a decentralized network of websites is notoriously hard. Luckily, much of the hard work is already done. Learn about federation standards (including recent activities at the W3C Social Working Group) and how to use PyPump, a library to make federating with Python easier, and how we're tackling site-to-site federation in GNU MediaGoblin.

Decentralize the web! Everyone wants to, but actually getting a decentralized network of websites is notoriously hard.

Luckily, much of the hard work is already done. Learn about federation standards and how to use PyPump, a python library to make federating with Python easier following the Pump API, and how we're tackling site-to-site federation in GNU MediaGoblin.

In addition to examples on how to federate, learn what the current state of standardizing federation protocols are, lessons learned through the standards process, and the latest to come out of the W3C Social Working Group.
