New blog post: How to implement a basic ActivityPub server https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2018/06/how-to-implement-a-basic-activitypub-server/
@bortzmeyer They're not in the spec! The spec left them "up to the implementation"
@bortzmeyer It's both bad and good. Lack of directions for transport and authentication layers means ActivityPub could be used over udp or websockets. Of course that's little use to us, since those layers being incompatible would cut us off.
@bortzmeyer That's us!
@bortzmeyer @Gargron oh this was my gut feeling but now it's official ?
@bortzmeyer @Gargron I proposed and volunteered to write Mastodon Client Conventions but it looks like we also need Mastodon ActivityPub profile
