Re: AS 2.0 Change Proposals

Hi,

It seems I cannot attend this call either, even though was hoping to. 
Tricky time for me, due to family schedules, but hopefully will work out 
on some week in the future.

Anyway, I'd like to quickly give a few comments on some of the items, 
even if this doesn't count as voting.

+1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Various Spec Cleanups and Simplifications -
https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/pull/220
(James)
+1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Proposal: Remove "priority" -
https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/218
(James, Ben Roberts)
+1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Proposal: Remove "alias" -
https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/225
(James)
+1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Proposal: Remove "Experience" -
https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/226
(James)
+1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Proposal: Limit "duration" to ISO8601
duration strings -
https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/213
(James)
+1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Proposal: Specify a content type on Content
objects - https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/229
(Michael Vogel, James)
+1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Proposal: Alias `@id` and `@type` to `id`
and `type` - https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/232
(Manu Sporny, James)
+1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Evan joining as Co-Editor
(https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-socialweb/2015Oct/0214.html)
    

+1 on all these.

+1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Proposal: Remove "Service" actor type -
https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/227
(James)

As commented on github, removing "Process" instead would be nicer, but 
generally +1.

-1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Proposal: Type for object of an Offer -
https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/175
(Evan)

-1, agree with comment by James: 
https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/175#issuecomment-119302305

-1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Proposal: Add "Blog" Object Type -
https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/157
(Evan)

-1, Agreed here also to the github discussion: 
https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/157#issuecomment-119282356

-1: [Activity Streams 2.0] Proposal: Remodel verbs as an rdf:Property
rather than an object type -
https://github.com/jasnell/w3c-socialwg-activitystreams/issues/208
(Elf)

-1 here too, it's time to move beyond remodeling the spec.

-1: Social Syntax: Simplified Microformats2 JSON "jf2" (Aaron)

-1 on recommending more than one vocabulary, if that is the purpose 
here. Implementers need to know what to implement, and giving many 
options in one spec doesn't give a clear picture. AS2 could be the thing 
and imho it should be built on.

Jason
