I can’t resist mentioning an old article of mine here:

That s true, it is a different implementation that would create a decentralized comment propagation system

John,

Thanks for your input. This long term plan that you and Brett refer to, is it open to the public? Would love to have a look.

As I told you in twitter, I am not familiar with Git so I can’t really understand what you are suggesting. But, on top of this, the discussion here is about a protocol. You seem to be talking about an implementation which is a different story. Thanks for sharing the idea though

Yup, given that Salmon requires that you have an XRD discovery mechanism for authors then adding a ‘personal comment store’ is very easy and part of the long term plan.

I think it would be better to implement a unique comment identifier for every comment. All comments could be like contents of a folder in GIT style. So every comment should be a MD5 or some other hash that belongs to a post only. The post should carry its hash wherever it is published along with its URL. Then every reposting should mimic the git cloning function and every new post comment should work as git push. In this way there could be a real distributed commenting system

Thanks for confirming Brett!
