The Annotations server is a Bright_Content component that manages a feed of annotations of any URI. The most common use for this service is for comments.
Notes on spam fighting: Bright_Content/Architecture/AntiSpam
This is the successor to the older comments plugin. Notes on that:
The bible for the comments plug-in is RFC 4685: Atom feed threads, building, of course, on Atom Syntax.
The comments plug-in provides
- a comments feed for each entry
- a POST handler for adding comments
- a simple store for comments
Philosophy
The annotation system is designed to promote healthy group dynamics
