GNU MediaGoblin was founded by @cwebber. Inspired by GNU social reviving development of the StatusNet project abandoned by Identi.ca, they developed a vision of enabling federation features between MediaGoblin services, and between those and services running GNU social, GNU FM, etc. To this end, along with Jessica Tallon (@tsyesika), they got involved with the AP standardisation process, which consumed a lot of their time and organising energy.

Response to MediaGoblin AP issue part 1;

> That's the clarity I was looking for, thanks. I've seen cases where conflict-avoidant maintainers say 'submit a patch' when what they mean is; 'this is an anti-goal but I don't want you to try to convince me otherwise, so I'll pretend to be open to a patch'. Clearly this is not you, which is a very good thing : )

Sadly I have neither the time or the skills. But if I hear from a dev wanting to gain experience with AP, and keen to brush up their Python, I will suggest adapting SH's federation library to work with MG as a project.

Thanks for the frank exchange, and keep up the good work.
