Research direction

Start by reproducing the 500 error at events.indieweb.org/webmention with the RSVP examples linked in the issue, including the event and RSVP URLs. Trace the RSVP/webmention handling to find why this previously working markup now fails; done means the reported RSVP completes without a 500 error and provides feedback on failure.
