Re: Proper use of InviteAction for a social group

Hi (again) Kevin,

I would suggest that the potentialAction
<https://schema.org/potentialAction> associated with a social group, like a
Facebook Group or a Meetup group would be a JoinAction
<https://schema.org/JoinAction> type.

The event property, also found in the JoinAction definition, is optional
like all properties in Schema.org.

The events associated with group membership should be defined separately in
their own right.
