Too often, the maintainers who build, test, and operate open source software aren't part of standards development, even though these standards directly shape their work. The result? A structural risk to our digital infrastructure, as standards can become more difficult to implement or misaligned with the public interest. (2/4)

@sovtechfund @hongminhee i love your work on fedify and how you've been actively reflecting and critiquing the ActivityPub implementations. I wanted to tag you here as this may be an opportunity for you to be more involved in the standard, and your voice is one I'd very much like to see represented 💛💜

@sovtechfund this sounds like great boost for some very important ongoing work. thanks for supporting this! is it possible that this might expand to include other standards which are critical to specialty areas of open source tech like @tdwg / @gbif for example?

@sovtechfund Is there a way to advocate, in order that ACCESSIBILITY becomes one of those standards?

@sovtechfund How focused do you want the applications w/rt single drafts? Of my dozen-or-so active IETF drafts, about half of them should qualify for public interest relevance (the rest are more niche topics), and no single of them would take a year of 10h/week to complete. Is improving an ecosystem on several fronts something you'd like to support, or do you need a single use case linking them all?
