As Webmentions and Pingbacks are closely related, are there plans to extend this tool to be able to send Pingbacks as well?

willnorris commented 4 years ago

I hadn't really planned to. Sites wanting to support both is certainly reasonable, and indeed it looks like a number of webmention implementations documented on https://indieweb.org/Webmention also support pingback.

However, I wonder if a separate pingback library would be a better separation? There would be a little bit of common code for parsing HTTP and HTML links, but the whole library is still pretty small.

Thanks for your feedback!
