FEPs by default don't have the IP statements that make them useful for incorporating into a W3C recommendation. They need to be submitted under the SocialCG CLA. I plan to submit all the ones I've authored. @benpate@mastodon.social @strypey@mastodon.nzoss.nz @smallcircles@social.coop @deutrino@mstdn.io @bengo@mastodon.social

We have a staging process for stuff moving from idea stage to recommendation. https://github.com/swicg/potential-charters/blob/main/stage-process.md @benpate@mastodon.social @strypey@mastodon.nzoss.nz @smallcircles@social.coop @deutrino@mstdn.io @bengo@mastodon.social

@evan@cosocial.ca from what i understand, some have raised concerns that certain FEPs wont be able to be merged into SocialCG because of the CLA/some creators wanting to be anonymous. How are you planning on handling that? Will we end up with two fediverses? One that is defined by whatever SocialCG cooks up, and another that is based on all the different FEPs?

@evan@cosocial.ca Do you have a link to the process description for submitting something like an FEP under the SocialCG CLA?
