Some aggregators, like Planet, sort by mtime rather than ctime. This
|
||||
means that posts with modified content come to the top (which seems odd
|
||||
to me, but is presumably what the aggregator's author or operator
|
||||
wants), but it also means that posts with insignificant edits (like
|
||||
adding tags) come to the top too. Atom defines `<updated>` to be the date
|
||||
of the last *significant* change, so it's fine that ikiwiki defaults to
|
||||
using the mtime, but it would be good to have a way for the author to
|
||||
say "that edit was insignificant, don't use that mtime".
|
||||
|
||||
See smcv's 'updated' branch for a basic implementation, which only affects
|
||||
the Atom `<updated>` field or the RSS equivalent.
|
||||
|
||||
Other places the updated metadata item could be used (opinions on whether
|
||||
each should use it or not, please):
|
||||
|
||||
* sorting by mtime in the inline directive
|
||||
* displaying "last edited" on ordinary pages
