One thing that stood out at #FediCon was hearing devs mention seeing @evan at conference after conference.
I can’t think of a better ambassador for the fediverse than the person who started it nearly 20 years ago.
From @swf and #SWICG to supporting E2EE work with @Bonfire, @benpate and more, Evan keeps showing up.
That kind of long-term stewardship matters. ❤️

@Edent nice article!
I notice you didn't mention as:Place in #ActivityStreams vocab. In your previous article you mentioned "there is good news and bad news" around as:Place, and I deduced the bad news was that Mastodon didn't support it.
Regarding the #SWICG #GeoSocial task force proposal, you wrote:
> The primary thing missing from the proposal is any form of understanding what users want to do with a geotagged post.
In both the observation on Mastodon support and mention of a geotagged *post* there's an implicit assumption on the application domains this pertains to: (micro)blogging social media.
I gather that the range of business/app domains that may have geosocial capabilities is much broader than that. And while a list of generic use cases can be brainstormed for support, things will be quite solution-specific. And the TF perhaps better provide good guidance and building blocks for that.
Broader question is whether fedi is already tied shut in a microblogging straitjacket.

@blog Insightful post. People in the SWICG geosocial task force are trying to turn your third strategy's hope into help. We’re writing explainer docs for implementing specific user stories, which has instigated work on a few related missing pieces to make federated Foursquare possible. It’s gonna happen!
