Let's meet. Was: Re: Should the specs be forked and maintained elsewhere?

Let’s get something done.

I declare myself bold enough to call a meeting with the following proposed coordinates:

When:
    Wednesday, March 29, 2023, 10-11am pacific daylight savings time.

Where: Sean’s Jitsi
    https://meet.privacysafe.io/
    Room “ActivityPub”. (I can’t spell swicg and neither can my spell checker)

Who:
    Anybody on this list
    Anybody who cares about the future of ActivityPub and related efforts
    Anybody attending FediForum (we will declare this to be one session so hopefully some attendees will show up here)

Objective:
    Collect views on the future of ActivityPub (and related) standardization
    Emerge with some sense of common direction (or be more clear about where disagreements may lie)
    A couple of next steps

I’m offering to play facilitator for this one meeting (no promises beyond that) although I would gladly not do that if somebody else volunteers. I’m just tired of waiting :-)

That’s the straw proposal, please propose modifications.

Thanks,



Johannes.
