@steve @trwnh @hongminhee ha! That was the notice that got me to become a maintainer. But I don't have the admin rights to change it!

@jasnell can you give admin rights on the activitystrea.ms repo so I can change the message and also push automatically?

@evan James archived the repo today, assumably in response to this question. I'm going to keep working from my personal fork, and I'll use that to push to npm. I think I can update the info in package.json on the topic, too. A change that's been waiting too long.

I think if there's one thing I'd say to #ActivityPub developers, it's this: it seems like it's going to be easier to just parse Activity Streams 2.0 data as plain JSON, but it's not. You have to keep track of too many variations. Use a JSON-LD library instead. For JavaScript, try activitystrea.ms:

@trwnh "more actively maintained"?

The code is long-term but it was built by one author of AS2 and maintained by the other. It works well, and I use it in production systems all the time.

I'm pretty sure @hongminhee has made a similar package, although I'm not sure it's distributed independently.

@evan@cosocial.ca @trwnh@mastodon.social I’m maintaining the @fedify/vocab package which depends on the jsonld package from Digital Bazaar. It’s written in 100% TypeScript, and has worked well on production services!
