Heading home from #ATProto_MTL

It was a small but mighty gathering. Thanks for the kind words: I feel lucky to be able to be in commons with you all.

A new headshot: blue skies and a wide atmosphere behind me.

And we're a wrap on the "pre-BoF" as part of the process of hoping to be accepted as a Working Group at the IETF

Thanks all who came in person to #ATProto_MTL #IETF124, and participated remotely.

At #IETF124 hackathon, Table 27 with the #ATProto_MTL crew @wesleyfinck.org @ngerakines.me @bnewbold.net @bad-example.com @dholms.xyz

Hahaha. Of course of course. Nothing at all like we were talking about here at #ATProto_MTL

We can totally just make an at URI segment called “totally private” or “totally jerry” and it will be fine. Hahah.

A reminder that we're having a small #ATProto_MTL social gathering tomorrow evening at Café Nocturne starting at 6pm EST. Stop by if you're interested in Bluesky, ATProto, dweb, or open social generally.

Off to Montreal tomorrow. I guess that will be partly #IETF124 and we’ll do some #ATProto_MTL

Will try to make it to at least one of these restaurants

I don’t think there is likely to be much guidance in the spec.

We spent the last couple of days #ATProto_MTL just sharing learnings between builders.

And I think you have to build the app and go live to really learn.

I had a really good discussion with the @germnetwork.com team around #ATProto_MTL / IETF sessions.

I have a better sense of what needs doing for their MLS work. If we want that to work on web and interop with native mobile we need a bunch of hardcore cryptography work.
