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

@j12t@j12t.social 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. On a personal level, email is the worst part of my working day, but I'm trying not to let my prejudices block me here!

@j12t @julian someone suggests that the discussion could happen in the Fediverse instead of another space, and there's an invitation to join this other space to raise this issue.

Curious reasoning!

@everton137@social.vivaldi.net !

To be fair there's a parallel reply from @darius@friend.camp about how the threadiverse at current can't support a world-readable but closed contribution group.

I'd argue that it's possible, but I haven't the proof of concept to demonstrate at this time .

Something I should work on next I suppose.

@julian @darius why not using a hashtag for the discussion?
