How to participate in the W3C Working Groups on AP

Are you an ActivityPub dev keen to take part in the recently announced W3C Working group (WG)?

Even if you're not affiliated with a current W3C member, you can be included as an Invited Expert. There is no application process as such, but you can;

• come to weekly AP issue triage meetings

• take part in Community Group (SocialCG) taskforces

• come to joint WG/CG meetings

If you enjoy participating in these, you can ask for a WG invitation.

This W3C Working Group is not intended to make any breaking changes, but rather to finesse the main specs that define interoperation in the fediverse (ActivityPub, ActivityStreams, Activity Vocabulary), by clarifying intended usage, providing examples, etc. Resulting in more of an AP 1.1 than a 2.0 version.
