Hi all, The DID WG had an opportunity to collaborate recently with the Social Web Incubator Community Group, and I'm happy to report that our joint mission has been a success. This is with respect to the `alsoKnownAs` property, something which has been in use by various ActivityPub implementations for some time, but was an extension rather than a core part of their stack of RECs. Members of the DID WG and implementers from the ActivityPub community worked together to refine the definition of `alsoKnownAs` that appears in the DID Core spec to make sure it is suitable for both communities, and at the weekend the Social Web Incubator CG passed a formal resolution to add `alsoKnownAs` into the ActivityStreams 2.0 namespace (and corresponding JSON-LD context) with a link out to the human-readable definition in DID Core [1]. It's always nice when groups with similar goals and interests can work together to share a vocabulary and reduce redundancy in the space. Thanks everyone!
