One file a ring serves about its members, one file a member may serve
about itself, plain links between them, and a made_by declaration on
every member (human, ai, both) so a reader can follow the human web or
the machine web on purpose. Six hop rules that accept every addressing
shape rings already use (?from=, ?host=, ?via=, ?url=, a slug in the
path, the bare Referer), so a member of any existing ring joins with no
change; verification the IndieWeb way (mark inactive, never delete); an
OPML twin of every ring; no script, no tracking, no central registry.
Name: OpenRing is Drew DeVault's tool in this exact niche and every
openring domain is taken; OpenWebring has only a dead 2020 predecessor
and free domains. Registered in the catalogs family.
First host: rssamplifier.com/ring (one ring per topic), in flight.
