@mauve @silverpill @smallcircles Something important that I don't think I've made very clear in my posts so far:
The "protocol" that I am describing is merely a minimal serialization format and schema standard on top of the #willowprotocol and nothing more.
Even the serialization format is just #borsh. It's not custom.
We aren't making a totally new protocol, we're describing a more organized way to store data on the #willowprotocol.
Granted the #willowprotocol is new and isn't #activitypub.
