@darius uh one more dumb question - where exactly are the fields of https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Event defined? I just see the link back to https://www.w3.org/TR/activitystreams-vocabulary/#dfn-event which has an example

There is a schema.org event, https://schema.org/Event

but the activitystreams event just inherits all properties from Object so its basically just a type?

@gvelez17 you have now run into one of the big problems with the Activity Vocabulary spec. it is very underspecified. so the properties that need to be there are: whatever the software you want to talk to requires 🙃

@darius haha well it is flexible at least...

But if I want my stuff to be picked up by gath.io, are there clues somewhere? does gath.io want to pick up my events?

@gvelez17 gath is broadcast-only. It is for creating events that people subscribe to

@darius yeah I was hoping to have a federated model for events similar to messages

@darius @mfoster hey Mark looping you in, i don't think the answer is schema.org - the answer has to be lightweight and a thing that was already adopted - where would you suggest that eithe whatscookin or gath.io (am I saying taht right) should publish our lightweight spec?
