@sam good job. As an #ietf veteran let.me know if I can help. Not sure where new #ogg stuff would go since the codec WG closed, but in many ways, CELLAR is the successor.

I did a bad thing… https://samwhited.codeberg.page/oggstem/

TL;DR this is the initial outline of an Internet Draft (I-D) for stem files using an open and non-patent-encumbered format. Currently it probably does not match the code in the same repo for generating them (https://codeberg.org/SamWhited/oggstem/) as I'm still experimenting with the layout of the files. This I-D has not been submitted to the IETF (at some point I'll move it to their data tracker). Feedback welcome.

OGG Stem Files

This document defines a multi-track profile of the OGG container format for storing stems that is also backwards compatible with existing media players.

That minipgp6-based SOP binary interoperates nicely with all other RFC 9580 implementations I've tested, including with PQC algorithms.

And the entire binary literally fits on a 💾

🥳

As I anticipated, RFC 9580 *really shines* ✨ in implementations that leave out all of the legacy parts.

The #OpenPGP WG at the #IETF specified an excellent modernization, with the "v6" formats. RFC 9580 perfectly balances full backward compatibility with *massive* forward-looking simplifications.

I'd be happy to take this to IETF or contribute to a JSON Schema for https://nesbitt.io/2026/02/08/sandwich-bill-of-materials.html. #ietf #json

Hello @evan and @bifurcation .. a question.

For inclusion of #ActivityPub information resources on the delightful-fediverse-development curated list there is this (now expired) #IETF draft exploring #MIMI / #MLS versus AP. I find this draft to be well-written and informative, and thus the draft possibly a candidate for inclusion for people as additional background reading to the #SocialCG work on MLS. Unless there are so many changes since the creation of the draft that it may raise confusion, and should not be included. What is your opinion here?

An Architecture for More Instant Messaging Interoperability (MIMI)

The More Instant Messaging Interoperability (MIMI) working group is defining a suite of protocols that allow messaging providers to interoperate with one another. This document lays out an overall architecture enumerating the MIMI protocols and how they work together to enable an overall messaging experience.

Routinator, our RPKI validation software, now sees more than 1000 Autonomous System Provider Authorization (ASPA) objects in the wild. These are published by operators to detect and prevent BGP route leaks.

ASPAs can be created in the hosted RPKI services of the RIPE NCC and ARIN, as well as our open-source RPKI Certification Authority software, Krill.

Open-source routing projects such as BIRD, OpenBGPD and FRRouting already offer support for ASPA, while major commercial vendor support is expected later this year.

The IETF (@ietf) has made a remarkable amount of great April Fools satire of their own technical documents.

Good bot or bad bot? is becoming one of the biggest questions on the modern web.

Web Bot Auth is a new cryptographic standard that lets AI agents prove who they are, so sites can trust verified automation and block malicious scrapers.

In my latest TechGlimmer piece, I unpack how it works, why Cloudflare, AWS, and Fingerprint are adopting it, and what it means for creators and businesses.
