- The Social Web Community Group at the W3C (@socialcg@w3.social). This is an open group for extending and improving ActivityPub and related standards. There are task forces for forums, groups, end-to-end encryption, remixing, discovery, data portability, trust and safety, geosocial data, and more.
- The FEP process. Loosely connected to the SocialCG but more lightweight. https://fediverse.codeberg.page/fep/

@alexiaAlexia ΘΔ @liaizonwakest ⁂ in terms of outreach, I will also say that this is hard. For a lot of teams, it means joining their Discord or a forum, making requests in a group chat, and hoping that someone sees it and replies. I try to do it for events like FOSDEM, but I don't always reach out proactively for standards work. More effort is warranted!
