At the last Fediforum, a group of "threadiverse" developers got together 
to discussion interoperability between different Web forum software 
packages using ActivityPub.

There are some de facto standards in the space, based on what Lemmy 
does, but there's interest in documenting this formally, and 
coordinating as a group.

In the follow-up meeting today, I participated and suggested that the 
implementers could form a task force within the SocialCG. Given that we 
have several task forces at work now making reports on different topics, 
I believe it would be a good fit for us.

I realize it's late for a discussion on this, but: can we add an agenda 
item to discuss creating a task force for creating a report on how to 
implement forum-like features in ActivityPub?
