Re: R: OStatus & SNEW (was R: Federation protocols)

Sorry, I didn't answer your last question. It's not directly based on 
OStatus, but it extracts the good parts and starts from scratch with 
those. Delta is:

  * Use Webfinger-based identities only.
  * Add a simple client API.
  * Replace PubSubHubbub and Salmon with a single "inbox" endpoint
  * Use Activity Streams audience targeting for privacy control
  * Replace Activity Streams Atom with Activity Streams JSON
  * Use OAuth for authorization
  * Add dynamic registration of OAuth client IDs with optional dialback
    authentication
