ActivityPub tutorial (complete with ascii art)
Hi everyone! I wrote an ActivityPub tutorial!
I hope that makes things pretty clear! It's plaintext only with ascii art for now, but I might add it as a preamble to the actual spec. What do people think? Feedback welcome!

“@Michael Probably Event :)
You could also use Invite and Accept and Reject to announce people being invited... heck, you could even use Arrive on the Event once you got there :)”
nice .. also noticed just below it theres "place" ...
so I could use that for the venue locations I guess :-)
the use-case I'm thinking of is more like a shared gig guide so it won't require invites as such (depends on the event) but I guess people could rsvp if they want to.
The use-case I'm thinking of is more like a kind of shared community gig guide than a personal calendar.
I'm thinking of something somewhat like a federated forum but with event dates, etc and and the context of locations is that of event venues rather than where a user is.
(can't use user locations for that - its a different thing!)
and at the ui end of things events would be displayed sorted by event dates.
@Michael if you make progress on this, be sure to let me know; federated calendaring is a highly desired feature

There's apparently work for a better location field
