Fwd: Bluesky spins out an entity for did:plc

FYI: both bluesky and nostr now have did methods, each with millions of
users, interoperable using w3c standards.

We could possibly spin up a simple ActivityPub method, along the lines of
did:web so something like did:ap or did:activitypub, then all the
networks would be interoperable via a common language

I spent much of the last year working on did:nostr and I think it's
currently in good shape.  Would anyone else be interested in a
did:activitypub method?

Hey All,

Fresh news today from Bluesky. They are spinning out a Swiss Non Profit to
govern the did:plc method and associated technology.

It seems maybe "PLC" doesn't mean placeholder anymore , they are
recognizing that the identity network might have further application
outside of the Bluesky social network.

Cheers,
