@silverpill@mitra.social @steve@social.technoetic.com it sounds like you're describing an "AP server" whose primary functionality is not "publish activities" but rather "manage CRUD for objects and Add/Remove for collections", by taking the AP "side effects" for Create/Update/Delete/Add/Remove and and saying the outbox should also check as:result.
which is cool but should probably be disambiguated.

@silverpill@mitra.social @steve@social.technoetic.com so maybe instead of "generic activitypub server" the FEP should be called something like "explicitly specifying side effects with the result property". it seems to me like the references to 2277 and fe34 are not strictly necessary to the core idea and a separate FEP could bundle them together into a profile, like "a profile for using outbox activities to manage objects and collections". not sure what the best name is because naming things is the hardest
