In support of the new Social Web working group and charter

Hi all! I'm the CTO of https://www.anew.social/ . We build and run multiple
ActivityPub implementations and libraries, notably https://fed.brid.gy/ ,
https://bounce.anew.social/ , https://granary.io/ , and more.

I've been a member of the W3C Social Web community group for a while, and
I've been following this new working group charter. I'm excited for it!
It's sorely needed. The standards that came out of the first WG are a solid
foundation, but it's been a long time, and they need love and attention.
ActivityPub especially would benefit from a rev.

Dmitri, Evan, Darius, et al have done admirable work shepherding the
charter through so far, and I have full confidence in their (Darius's!)
ability to lead a working group. I'd happily participate as an invited
expert if I'm asked.

Please approve this charter!
