-ikiwiki's simple podcasting, while elegant and minimal, doesn't (as
-mentioned in [[todo/blogging]]) produce full-featured feeds. In
-fancy podcasts, episodes are accompanied by text content. The feeds
-also have lots more metadata.
-
-[[!toc]]
-
-## Design
-
-7. For each fancy podcast episode, write a blog post containing
- `\[[!meta enclosure="WikiLink/to/media.mp3"]]`. (Don't specify
- more than one enclosure -- but if you do, last one wins.)
-7. When rendering to HTML (single-page or inlined), append a link
- to the media file.
-7. When rendering to RSS/Atom, the text is the entry's content and
- the media file is its enclosure.
-7. Don't break simple podcasts in pursuit of fancy podcasts.

[[!template id=gitbranch branch=schmonz/fancypodcast author="[[schmonz]]"]]
[[!tag patch]]
-### Completed
-
-* Cover the existing simple podcast behavior with tests.
-* Add an `enclosure` field to [[plugins/meta]] that expands the
- given [[ikiwiki/WikiLink]] to an absolute URL (feed enclosures
- pretty much need to be, and the reference feeds I've looked at
- all do this).
-* Write failing tests for the desired single-page and inlined
- HTML behavior, then make them pass by adding enclosure stanzas
- to `{,inline}page.tmpl`.
-* Write failing tests for the desired RSS/Atom behavior, then make
- them pass via changes to `{atom,rss}item.tmpl` and [[plugins/inline]].
-* Match feature-for-feature with
- [tru_podcast](http://www.rainskit.com/blog/542/tru_podcast-a-podcasting-plugin-for-textpattern)
- (what [[schmonz]] will be migrating from).
-* Enrich [feed metadata](http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/rss/rss.html)
- by catching up `rsspage.tmpl` to `atompage.tmpl`.
-* Verify that [[plugins/more]] plays well with fancy podcasts.
-* Verify that the feeds validate.
-* Subscribe to a fancy feed in some common podcatchers and verify
- display details against a reference podcast.

-### Must-have (for [[schmonz]], anyway)
-
-* Think carefully about...
- * UTF-8.
- * Other templates with `CONTENT` and whether they want to learn
- about `ENCLOSURE` (maybe `aggregatepost.tmpl`?).
- * Whether [[tips/howto avoid flooding aggregators]] suffices for
- migrating a fancy podcast into ikiwiki.
-* Verify that _all_ the tests pass (not just my new ones).

## Future improvements
### iTunes fancy podcasting
* [mediainfo](http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/) is way slower
* Cache computed durations as pagestate
+### Fancy podcast aggregating
+
+* Write tests comparing a fancy podcast (HTML and feeds) against
+ the same podcast aggregated and republished, then make them pass
+ via changes to `aggregatepost.impl` and [[plugins/aggregate]].
+
### Other ideas
* Optionally specify the enclosure's:
