Am I missing something or is this basically a W3C spec for trackbacks?
- smacktoward 9y agoIt mentions being derived from Pingback (http://www.hixie.ch/specs/pingback/pingback http://www.hixie.ch/specs/pingback/pingback), which IIRC was at least a spiritual successor to Trackback, so I don't think you're missing anything. (Which makes me want to look closely at the security/verification parts of the spec, since Trackback was essentially a system for letting spammers spray whatever content they wanted all over your Web site. I wrote a thing about that back in 2005: http://www.anthillcommunities.com/archives/001653.html http://www.anthillcommunities.com/archives/001653.html)
