Awesome !
I think it's better to use a free-form text instead of trying to come up
with a strict syntax to communicate when the capsule should be online.
I'm not convinced it is worth for robots to know these schedules, given
all the complex schedule one can have (and the rabbit hole for the
"perfect" syntax that covers all possible situations is pretty deep.)
Agreed - as someone pointed out in this thread, the only thing that can cover all cases is a scripting language - which would be too complex an approach imo. And even that wouldn't cater for unpredictable schedules (e.g. "my capsule is available when I'm on #some-irc-channel")
Best to deal with the simple, human oriented scenario first.
There are registrar that disallow txt records? Lot of other services
(gitlab pages comes to mind for example) requires user to set TXT
records.
Also SPF and dkim require TXT records - and these are needed for anyone who wants email at their own domain.
My registrar hides TXT records under an "Advanced" tab, but it's available.
