Original Activity Streams (and related) submission by opensocial.org to the W3C SocialWG. This is interesting from an historical perspective.

Links to historical versions of the AS2 JSON-LD context document.

Discussion about shared inbox, replies, json-ld, etc.

[Video] "Four years later, while the fediverse plays host to a thriving community and unique culture, it remains a nonentity by the standards of social media giants. Why is this?

And what can this tell us about the possibilities and limitations of anarchistic spaces as a whole?"

Snell's comment that the OWL Ontology was intentionally non-normative to allow changes without an official W3C working group. I haven't found discussions in the SocialWG minutes related to this discussion.

Discussion about the rationale for why Mastodon doesn't support C2S. (My opinion: the arguments are weak and confuse the concept of a general client *API* with a client user interface implementation.)

GitHub issue discussing how Webfinger and its relationship to ActivityPub.

(Dec 2008) Discussion of Activity Streams directions.

Distributed social web project from 2007-2010 timeframe (focused on WordPress).
