@J12t @tchambers Instead of a document, a single test suite you can use to test your implementation would be nice.

@ramsey #ActivityPub #test suite is actually number two on my list. There used to be one, but it's unmaintained and apparently not quite recoverable.

But we need both: a single spec, and a corresponding test suite. That should be the foundation.

And #3 on my #Fediverse wish list is a branding program. If your product passes the minimal test suite, you get to put a sticker on it. Sort of like the "Validated HTML" logo we used to have when HTML was new, or the "Bluetooth" logo:

If a prospective user comes across a product displaying the brand, they will know it will interoperate. Geeks may not care, but IMHO it's really important for broader consumer adoption.
