So happy to see that #Mastodon has become a member of the W3C and is now coming to the renewed #ActivityPub standardization activity.

Social Web WG, 2026-03-06 - HackMD

@[email protected] interesting that the WG is pursuing async discussions through IRC/Matrix/GitHub but not on fedi 🙂 (threadiverse group?)
@julian Idk what all the pros and cons are, but you could show up there and make the case :-)

@j12t @julian open to hearing about it of course.

Threadiverse as it currently exists is great for general discussion but for WG work items ("how's project A coming along?" and I only want responses from WG members) I'm not sure the tech is there for "closed group" style activity.

Mailing list might ultimately be the right choice because it's easy to configure closed-group but world-readable. On a personal level I hate email but I'm trying not to let my prejudices block me here!
