<p>What differentiates HPR from other podcasts is that the shows are crowd sourced from the community - fellow listeners like <strong><a href="<!--% absolute_url(baseurl) %-->about.html#contact">you</a></strong>. There is no restriction on how long the show can be, nor on the topic you can cover as long as they are not spam and <em>"are of interest to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_(hobbyist)" >Hackers</a>"</em>. If you want to see what topics have been covered so far just have a look at our <a href="<!--% absolute_url(baseurl) %-->eps/index.html">Archive</a>. We also allow for a <a href="<!--% absolute_url(baseurl) %-->series/index.html">series</a> of shows so that hosts can go into more detail on a topic.<p>
|
||

<p>You can download/listen to the shows <a href="<!--% absolute_url(baseurl) %-->eps/index.html">here</a> or you can <a href="<!--% absolute_url(baseurl) %-->syndication.html">subscribe</a> to the show in your favorite podcatching client to automatically get our new shows as soon as they are available.

This show is also <a href="<!--% absolute_url(baseurl) %-->recording.html#round_table" >open to anyone</a> to participate in. The schedule for the Community News shows can be downloaded as an <a href="<!--% absolute_url(baseurl) %-->HPR_Community_News_schedule.ics">iCal calendar</a> containing recording dates for the next 12 months. A reminder is also sent to the mailing list in the week before the recording.</p>

The first thing you will need to do is decide on a topic for your show. You might already have an idea but if not you can have a look at our <a href="/index_full.php">Archive</a> page for examples of shows people have recorded in the past. You can also look at our <a href="/requested_topics.php">Requested Topics</a>, or our <a href="/series.php">Series</a> page to see if you can add your knowledge to the pool.

If you are worried that your show may not be of interest to <?php print "${HPR_Names}";?> then you can <a href="will-my-show-be-of-interest-to-hackers.html">click here</a> to check if it is.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|

If you can't think of anything to talk about then please just record a show telling us <a href="series.php?id=29">how you got into tech</a> as a way to introducing yourself to the community.

Fellow listeners like yourself contribute the shows and so we all know how hard it is to do that first show. You're probably worried that we won't like the topic. Well don't be, have a look at our <a href="/index_full.php">archive</a> to see how diverse the contributions have been. You're probably worried about the quality of your audio, that you sound funny, that English isn't your native language, that you suffer from a speech impediment, that your show has loads of ummms and awws in it, well don't be. We have plenty of hosts that fall into all these categories but continue to produce great shows.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
At the end of the day the show is about the content and not the quality of the audio. That's not to say we won't help you with ways to improve the audio if you wish, or narrate your script if you can't or won't record it yourself. Drop into the IRC channel <a href="https://web.libera.chat/gamja/?channels=oggcastplanet">#oggcastplanet</a> where there are people who will help.<br />

Hacker Public Radio is dedicated to sharing knowledge.
|
||
We release about 260 shows a year, which is probably more than all of the other FOSS podcasts put together.
|
||
If you listen to HPR, then we would love you to <a target="_blank" href="<!--% absolute_path(baseurl) %-->contribute.html">contribute</a> one show a year.
|
||
Remember once that all the reserve shows have been used up and there are no more shows in the queue, HPR as a project will stop.

<h2 id="syndication">We do not syndicate non HPR Shows<a href="#syndication">.</a></h2>

<p>
|

HPR is founded on the principle of Hackers sharing knowledge.
|
||
For this reason we are only releasing material created exclusively for HPR.
|
||
We will continue to promote new podcasts and other creative commons material, but if you wish to have your show promoted, then please contact our sister site <a href="https://freeculturepodcasts.org/">Free Culture Podcasts</a>.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
That said, if there is a piece of creative commons content that you would like to promote, then feel free to record a regular show.
|
||
There you can introduce the content and explain why it is important, providing links to where we can get more information etc., and then include one example episode.

Never include content, for example music, in your show that you do not have permission to redistribute.

Try to avoid using any content in your show that can not be redistributed under a <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/">Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-SA 4.0) </a> license.

If you are redistributing under another Creative Commons license, GNU Free Documentation License, public domain, or FLOSS software license, then please signal that when you upload your show.

<h2 id="not_moderated">The audio of your show will not be moderated<a href="#not_moderated">.</a></h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
We do not vet, edit, moderate or in any way censor any of the audio you submit, we trust you to do that.
|
||
Aside from checking snippets for audio quality/spam checking, we have a policy that we don't listen to the shows before they are aired.
|
||
This is a long standing tradition arising from the fact that HPR is a community of peers who believe that any host has as much right to submit shows as any other.
|
||
<br />
|
||
We <strong>do</strong> transcode the audio into different formats.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Please note that this only relates to the audio you upload.
|
||
The rest of the meta-data (branding/summaries/tags/show notes/etc.), are managed by the HPR Community, and <strong>may</strong> be edited.
|
||
The show <a href="<!--% absolute_path(baseurl) %-->eps/hpr2210/index.html">hpr2210 :: On Freedom of Speech and Censorship</a> describes the agreed approach to this topic.

</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="explicit">Your show will be signaled as containing explicit content<a href="#explicit">.</a></h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Given that we are an open forum for free speech we signal all our shows as "explicit" with the assumption that the listeners will apply the required discretion when playing the shows in public.
|
||
That said the majority of our content is technical in nature and therefore is often considered appropriate for any audience.
|
||
If you feel that your show will be considered <strong>inoffensive in every region of the world</strong> then you can signal that when you upload the show.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
When dealing with content that is "explicit" or contains material that would best be suited for a mature audience, it has become traditional to include a short warning at the very beginning of the show before the intro, to allow listeners time to switch off the episode should they so desire.

<h2 id="schedule">You determine when your show will be released<a href="#schedule">.</a></h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The HPR Schedule is entirely community driven and we recommend that <strong>you</strong> pick the date or show number as then you know when your show will be released.
|
||
However the slots will only be allocated once the shows have been successfully processed.
|
||
Any missing information can result in a show missing the requested slot.
|
||
Once the slots have been allocated it is not possible to move them.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2 id="reserving">All reservations need to be approved<a href="#reserving">.</a></h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Any host can select any free slot a up to year in advance. However the audio must be ready at time of picking a slot so that it can be upload immediately afterwards.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
In exceptional circumstances it may be necessary to reserve a slot while not having the audio available, but this must be approved by the <a href="https://hackerpublicradio.org/mailman/listinfo/hpr_hackerpublicradio.org">HPR Mailing List</a> in advance.
|
||
Be sure to allow as much time as possible, and include a reason why you feel it is necessary to reserve the slot.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
This is intended only for exceptional circumstances, such as a scheduled interview where we would like the audio to be released as soon after the event as possible, or to cover an important topical situation that has occurred.
|
||
Due to the extended time now needed to post shows to external sites, the extra work this entails and the disruptive effect of reservations, we will no longer be allowing them except in very rare cases of the type mentioned above.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>

The following are standing reservations:

<h2 id="accessibility">Keep accessibility in mind<a href="#accessibility">.</a></h2>
|

<p>
|

When you includes output from the command line in the show notes, posting screen-shots of console or terminal output makes it impossible for screen readers to access the text.
|
||
Always try to include the raw output ( eg: embedded in <pre> tags)
|
||
<br />
|
||
Include descriptive language in any link texts.
|
||
<br />
|
||
Avoid structures like: <em>"For accessibility information click <a href="#accessibility">here</a>"</em><br />

Rather use: <em>"For more information click our <a href="#accessibility">accessibility page</a>"</em><br />

<h2 id="international">Your show will be heard by an International Audience<a href="#international">.</a></h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
We have people listening from all over the world, who may not have the same cultural background as yourself, therefore you should be as clear as possible when giving details.
|
||
For example always give temperatures in both Celsius and Fahrenheit, measurements in Metric and Imperial, dates in <strong>YYYY-MM-DD</strong> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601">iso8601</a> format, and abbreviations using the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO_phonetic_alphabet">NATO phonetic alphabet</a>.
|
||
Never assume that your audience knows what age a sixth grader is, or how big a 20 Cent Euro coin is.
|
||
Keep in mind that keyboard layouts are also different so make sure to specify the key shape or the position inrelation to a common known standard.
|
||
For example:
|
||
</p>
|
||
<blockquote>The at sign normally situated above the 2 key on a US keyboard, and has a unicode number of U+0040.

<p>
|

Many of today's <a href="http://wiki.xiph.org/PortablePlayers">portable media players</a> support recording audio out of the box. Search for "Voice Recorder", to see if there is an application for your smartphone. Whichever option you have close to hand, try and set the recording to the best quality format (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAV">WAV</a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLAC">FLAC</a>), and set everything else to the highest setting. It's always the goal to get the best quality audio but here at <?php print "${HPR_Name}";?> Public Radio we value content over quality and so long as it's audible we'll take it.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|

Then just record your show, <a href="request_a_slot.php">request a slot</a>, and we'll do the rest.

Walk through the audio wizard and then pop into the <strong><?php print "${HPR_Name}";?> Public Radio</strong> room.

|

<p>
|
||
You may include backing music but it's best if you don't. Most long time podcast listeners speed up their shows, as this allows them to cram more shows into a day. Having bedding music makes it more difficult to understand, and prevents tools like <em>truncate silence</em> from working correctly.<br/>
|
||
Others will convert shows to mono to listen in one ear leaving the other free to carry out their other chores. Still more slow the shows down so that they can improve their English. Others are hard of hearing and backing music makes it difficult to understand the text.

<h1 id="requesting_slot">Picking a slot for your show</h1>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Any host can select any free slot a up to year in advance, by recording their show and uploading it to the desired slot. In exceptional circumstances it may be necessary to reserve a slot while not having the audio available, but this must be approved by the <a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/mailman/listinfo/hpr_hackerpublicradio.org">HPR mailing list</a> in advance. Be sure to allow as much time as possible, and include a reason why you feel it is necessary to reserve the slot.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
This is intended only for exceptional circumstances, such as a scheduled interview where we would like the audio to be released as soon after the event as possible, or to cover an important topical situation that has occurred. Due to the extended time now needed to post shows to external sites, the extra work this entails and the disruptive effect of reservations, we will no longer be allowing them except in very rare cases of the type mentioned above. [<a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/pipermail/hpr_hackerpublicradio.org/2018-February/014260.html">?</a>]
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
You can post your show by going to the <a href="http://<?php print "${HTTP_HOST}";?>/calendar.php">Calendar</a> page. Once you have selected a date you will be redirected to the <a href="http://<?php print "${HTTP_HOST}";?>/request.php">request page</a>, where you will be asked to select your show and email address. We will send a link to where you can upload your show to this address and therefore it must be a valid working address that you can access quickly. We intend to use <a href="https://www.gnupg.org/">GPG</a> to speed up the validation of hosts, so you may wish to use an email address that has an associated public key available on public key servers.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The audio of your show will not be moderated, however <em>the information provided in the upload form <strong>may be moderated</strong></em>. All publicly facing material is managed by the HPR Community as a whole, and not just the host providing the show. The show <a href="https://hackerpublicradio.org/eps.php?id=2210">hpr2210 :: On Freedom of Speech and Censorship</a> describes the agreed approach to this topic.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p><strong>Note:</strong> This email address will be published on the HPR website and will be given out in the feeds, so please use a <strong>public email</strong> address for this purpose. Where we publish it we pad it with dot nospam at-sign nospam dot. <br />
|
||
i.e. <em>hpr@example.com</em> becomes <em>hpr.nospam@nospam.example.com</em>. If you do not want to have your email exposed, please contact the admin@hpr team to arrange a alias.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Once you press <em>next</em>, an email will be sent to your email address pointing to where you can upload the show. You need to <em>open</em> the link within <strong>15 minutes</strong> or the temporary lock will be released. Once you open the link, you can fill in the information at your leisure. The upload form works on the assumption you will be posting one show at a time, from the same IP address. Once you have pressed submit you will not be able to edit any of the information.

|
||
<li id="show_notes"><strong>show notes:</strong> <em>Mandatory</em><br />
|
||
It is important to provide good show notes because:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><strong>They provide the listeners with more information on the topic.</strong><br />
|
||
You have taken the time to record a show on a topic, so many people will want to find out more on the subject, therefore you should include links to give more information. It is not enough to just give it in the show itself as people may be listening while away from the Internet, and they may have forgotten or misheard your links.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li><strong>They ensure your show gets posted on time.</strong><br />
|
||
If you do not supply show notes then your show notes will need to be edited manually by an HPR volunteer and this will most likely result in delays. During that time other shows will be processed and may get posted before your show. It is always better if you send us show notes yourself as you know best what information you are trying to convey.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>They encourage people to download your show.</strong><br />
|
||
We produce a lot of shows and many people download based on the text in the show notes. If the show notes are not descriptive then it is less likely that it will get as many downloads as other shows with good show notes.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>They allow your show to be indexed by search engines.</strong><br />
|
||
Search engines cannot determine the content of your show from the audio alone. The only way for your show to be indexed is for you to describe in the associated text what you say in the audio.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>They make your show accessible to the deaf and hard of hearing.</strong><br />
|
||
Your audio is completely inaccessible to those who have hearing problems, so the only way for your show to be of help to them is if you distill the essence of the show into the show notes. If you are using a script to prepare your show then include that.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
The amount you can enter is restricted to 4000 characters, but you can provide additional show notes if you wish. Please add them to an index.html file which you can expect to be served from http://<?php print "${HTTP_HOST}";?>/eps/hpr9999/index.html<br /> <br />
|
||
<li>
|
||
If you wish to include text formatting then please use a format that supports it. We accept:
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>HTML5</li>
|
||
<li>Markdown (standard)</li>
|
||
<li>Markdown (GitHub flavoured)</li>
|
||
<li>Markdown (Pandoc flavoured)</li>
|
||
<li>RestructuredText</li>
|
||
<li>txt2tags</li>
|
||
<li>Plain text</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
However please restrict yourself to text unless you are experienced producing valid markdown/HTML5. Regardless of the format you send your shownotes will end up in html5 <article> section, where the header and footer are not available to you. Avoid using <div> or <span>. The inclusion of JavaScript will send your show into quarantine, until an experienced HPR volunteer can be found to debug it.<br />
|
||
It takes us a lot longer to fix incorrectly formatted shownotes than plain text, so please only create formatted show notes if you know what you are doing and are sure that what you are writing is valid.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li id="shownotes_format"><strong>Show Note Format:</strong> <em>Optional</em><br />

</li>
|

<li id="tags"><strong>Tags:</strong> <em>Optional</em><br />
|

Add a list of comma separated tags. Pick the most important words from the shownotes. These are used to <a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/tags.php">find shows via the tags page</a>.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li id="upload_method"><strong>Upload Method:</strong> <em>Optional</em><br />
|

You have the choice of the following options:<br />
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li id="browser"><strong>Upload now via this browser</strong><br />
|
||
You can upload single or multiple files using this method. Chrome will display the percentage uploaded but to see this in Firefox you will need to install a <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/uploadprogress/">plugin</a>, or just wait.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li id="url"><strong>Provide a url for us to get it from</strong><br />
|
||
Using this option may cause delays as a HPR volunteer will need to troubleshoot any issues that may occur, and this can result in your show not been posted on time.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li id="upload_later"><strong>Other</strong><br />
|
||
The postal information will be sent to you after submission.
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<br />
|
||
If you want to submit an additional file with your show, then put them in a zip, or tgz file. This should expand to a directory with a index.html file that refers to the other files. This will be hosted in the eps directory under a new directory with the episode number.
|
||
<pre>
|
||
http://<?php print "${HTTP_HOST}";?>/eps/hpr9999/index.html
|

|
||
http://<?php print "${HTTP_HOST}";?>/eps/hpr9999/yet-other-file.c
|
||
...
|
||
</pre>
|
||
Ensure that all links are full urls, as relative urls will not work in RSS feeds. Adding additional files will delay processing as they need to be verified manually.
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Press submit and your show will be sent to the HPR Volunteers to be processed. Keep an eye on the <a href="http://<?php print "${HTTP_HOST}";?>/calendar.php">calendar</a> for when it is posted.
|
||
Your show information is used to process the media files, on the website, in the RSS feeds, and on social media sites.

|
||
<h2 data-number="0.1" id="what-is-hacker-public-radio"><span class="header-section-number">0.1</span> What is Hacker Public Radio?</h2>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><p>Hacker Public Radio (HPR) is an Internet Radio show (podcast) that releases shows (episodes) every weekday Monday through Friday.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>What differentiates HPR from other podcasts is that the shows are crowd sourced from the community — fellow listeners like you. There is no restriction on how long shows can be, nor on the topic you can cover, as long as they are not spam and "are of interest to Hackers".</p>
|
||
<p>If you want to see what topics have been covered so far just have a look at our <a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/index_full.php">Archive</a>. We also allow for shows to be grouped into <a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/series.php">series</a> so that hosts can go into more detail on a topic.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>Look at the <a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/about.php"><em>About HPR</em></a> page for a full description of <em>The HPR Community</em>, <em>Free Culture</em>, <em>Governance</em> and our <em>Patrons</em>.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>A question on the mailing list in 2020 asked if HPR is a Content Publication Network like YouTube, or is it a Podcast that random people contribute to? Or to put it another way, is the host addressing the Internet in general or the HPR Audience?</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>The consensus of opinion is that HPR is a Podcast contributed to by the community, not a Content Publication Network.</li>
|
||
</ul></li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<h2 data-number="0.2" id="what-is-a-show"><span class="header-section-number">0.2</span> What is a show?</h2>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><p>A show is your <em>audio</em> presentation (which we do not moderate), with an <em>intro</em>, <em>outro</em>, a <em>title</em> and a <em>summary</em>.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>The <em>audio</em> is the recording you have made and sent in to HPR.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>The <em>intro</em> (introduction) is a piece of audio introducing the show. See <a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/theme.php"><em>HPR Theme Music</em></a> for details. The components are:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>a synopsis taken from the details submitted with the show (added automatically)</li>
|
||
<li>acknowledgement of our hosting provider (added automatically)</li>
|
||
<li>HPR introduction music, can be added automatically or by you</li>
|
||
</ul></li>
|
||
<li><p>The <em>outro</em> is added automatically, but you can add it yourself if you want. It must contain the HPR outro music and the text you will find on the <a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/theme.php"><em>HPR Theme Music</em></a> page.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>Each show needs a <em>title</em> to describe what it is about.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>Similarly, a <em>summary</em> helps to add more information describing the show so a potential listener can decide whether to listen to it or not.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>Each show is expected to have certain mandatory attributes listed <a href="#what-are-the-mandatory-elements-of-an-hpr-show">below</a>.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>HPR shows are usually expected to be informative or educational, and as such some sort of accompanying written material is highly desirable. This might consist of brief notes, links to relevant web sites, or possibly longer notes and examples. Photographs, diagrams and example files are also welcome if the host feels it helps to get the message across.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>Shows are released under a <a href="">Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported</a> license. See <a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/stuff_you_need_to_know.php"><em>Stuff you need to know</em></a> for much more detail about this and related issues.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>As a contributor you can choose when your show will be released. We only release one show a day, during week days, but if a slot is free you can claim it. Go to the <a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/calendar.php"><em>calendar</em></a> page to do this. You need to have your show ready to upload before you reserve a slot though.</p></li>

<ul>
|
||
<li><p>Strictly, no. Shows are expected to have been made exclusively for HPR.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>However, we support promoting new podcasts and other creative commons material. If you record a show of your own in which you introduce the other podcast, perhaps explaining why it is important, and giving links to the feed, you may include an example episode.</p></li>
|

<li><p>A series exists <a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/series.php?id=75"><em>Podcast recommendations</em></a>, which can be used for such shows.</p></li>

<ul>

<li><p>Tags are simple words or short phrases describing aspects of a show such as what topics are covered in it.

|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><strong>Please don't do that</strong>. It is important to provide good show notes for reasons described on the <a href="http://hackerpublicradio.org/request_a_slot.php"><em>Picking a slot for your show</em></a> page:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>They provide the listeners with more information on the topic your show is covering</li>
|
||
<li>They ensure your show gets posted on time (the volunteers don't have to make notes for you)</li>
|
||
<li>They encourage people to download your show</li>
|
||
<li>They allow your show to be indexed by search engines</li>

|

<ul>
|
||
<li><p>We don't listen to the audio before posting a show to the website, so we don't change the content.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>Unless you have done so and told us you have, we add an introduction to the audio announcing what it is. Similarly we add an <em>outro</em>. This is not <u>editing</u> since we don't change the content.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>We may make changes to the show title, summary or tags. Usually these are minor changes such as spelling corrections. The intention is not any sort of censorship, merely to make these items more understandable or easier to index.</p></li>
|

<li><p>Depending on the form the show notes take we may modify these.</p>

<li>If what is submitted is plain text we convert it to Markdown in order to generate HTML.</li>
|
||
<li>If the notes are one of the permitted markup formats (mostly Markdown flavours) we may adjust this to ensure that valid HTML is generated.</li>
|
||
<li>If the notes are HTML we run them through an HTML checker and correct any mistakes it highlights.</li>
|
||
<li>We may correct spelling, grammar and punctuation if this clarifies anything which might otherwise be unclear.</li>
|
||
<li>If despite the request for show notes of some kind, none are provided, we may add notes which help to clarify the content of the show. This may be done after the show is released (when we have had a chance to listen to it).</li>
|
||
</ul></li>
|
||
<li><p>We are working on the production of reports about any changes made, which will be sent to the host after we have processed the show.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>We may make changes to a show's metadata if the host requests it (see the item on <a href="#if-i-notice-an-error-in-my-shows-details-how-can-it-be-fixed">fixing errors after upload</a>).</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>If a show contains links to resources which disappear after a period of time, we may at some future time change the notes to refer to any <em>Wayback Machine</em> copy that can be found.</p></li>

<h2 data-number="0.10" id="what-are-some-common-errors-in-show-notes"><span class="header-section-number">0.10</span> What are some common errors in show notes?</h2>
|
||
<p>It depends on the note format to some extent:</p>
|
||
<h3 data-number="0.10.1" id="html-notes"><span class="header-section-number">0.10.1</span> HTML notes</h3>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><p>It's very easy to hand-write bad HTML. That's why we use an HTML checker on it, and fix the errors it reports.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>A common fault is to write <code><code><pre></code> to define a pre-formatted block of text using a fixed-width font. However it's illegal because the <code><pre></code> tag can't be enclosed in other tags like <code><code></code>. Use <code><pre><code></code> instead.</p></li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<h3 data-number="0.10.2" id="markdown-notes"><span class="header-section-number">0.10.2</span> Markdown notes</h3>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>This is quite a forgiving format. Some people embed HTML in the Markdown, and the HTML used suffers from some of the issues discussed in this document. These are <em>much</em> harder to spot. The HTML checker can't really help unless it's run on the output from Pandoc.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<h3 data-number="0.10.3" id="general-errors"><span class="header-section-number">0.10.3</span> General errors</h3>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><p>Spelling is often an issue in notes. As the notes are processed they are edited in the Vim editor with the spell check option turned on. In most cases spelling problems flagged by Vim are corrected.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>Grammar and punctuation can also be issues. We do not have very effective grammar checking tools in the note preparation workflow. Modifications may be made to split up extra-long (often <em>comma-spliced</em>) sentences, rationalise the use of capital letters and similar.</p></li>

</ul>

<h2 data-number="0.11" id="if-i-notice-an-error-in-my-shows-details-how-can-it-be-fixed"><span class="header-section-number">0.11</span> If I notice an error in my show's details how can it be fixed?</h2>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><p>The HPR administrators can make changes to show titles, summaries, notes and so forth. Ideally send an email to <code>admin</code> at <code>hackerpublicradio.org</code> explaining what the problem is and we'll fix it for you. We'll also ensure that the changes are propagated to the relevant page on archive.org.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>Don't be tempted to send in your corrections as a comment. Comments are not propagated to archive.org, so people referring to that copy will not see the changes.</p></li>

|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><p>Some environments prevent access to sites which use the word <code>'hacker'</code> or <code>'hackers'</code> in their names (or content in extreme cases). The site names <code>hobbypublicradio.{com,net,org}</code> have been created, which link to the main HPR site, in order to get around this restriction.</p></li>

<li>An HPR tradition exists where we record a 26-hour show at the turn of the year celebrating the arrival of the New Year around the world. We use Mumble to record the show and anyone can connect to the Mumble server and speak to other HPR listeners and hosts. The recording is used to make multiple shows which are released when they are ready.</li>
